Broken Values

Book excerpt: America was built on stolen lands. Jim Crow segregation lives on. Remnants of slavery persist. Systemic racism is everywhere. Women are oppressed. Abortions are to be celebrated. Religion is divisive. Please don't mention God. Illegal Immigrants come before citizens. Police are bad. You are a victim. The Second Amendment is on the way out. There is inequality all around. Dump the constitution. It's time for a new social contract. Is this really America 2020? Yes. That's how the Democrats see it. It's written in their platform. But it wasn't always this way. Not long ago, Democrats advocated for traditional American values: Personal responsibility, faith, family and a common American story. They wrote these values into their platform election after election. In Broken Values, Gideon Israel takes on the cultural issues underlying the policy changes in the Democrat Party Platform. He tells the story of the Democrat Party's collapse from an assuredly patriotic party to today's culturally woke parade led by the likes of Bernie Sanders and "the squad", which has betrayed the values that were once shared by all Americans. In Broken Values you will learn: Why party platforms matter. How personal responsibility was once a hallmark of the Democrat Party. Why pro-abortion groups didn't like Bill Clinton. Why the Democrats stopped discussing family values. How the Democrats advocate for open borders without saying it. How the Democrat Party is distancing itself from Israel. The Democrats surprising obsession with gun control going back 50 years. Why the Democrats can't unite America.
