Sommario/riassunto

Shows that it's not too late to return to the America that our founders envisioned. Democracy requires a fair playing field. It can survive only if &quot;We&quot;, the people stand up, speak out, and reclaim our democratic birthright. This book includes information on reframing the immigration debate.
