The Ideologue by Joe Khoury, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This book is about documenting the transformation of the United States under the Obama policies, and the ideological premises of that transformation. The book makes clear that policy considerations under Obama were defined in terms of his ideological disposition instead of what is necessarily in the best interest of the country. His left wing disposition left little room for cost-benefit analysis and for policies emerging from a true national dialogue. Obama Care was made into law without a single Republican vote. Much of the proposed legislations passed by the House of Representative were shelved by the Democrat Senate. Race relations became worse under his administration as he preferred to interfere in every case involving African- Americans while ignoring compelling facts. His decision on the Keystone Pipeline is illustrative of an appeasement policy for the left instead of one that produces jobs and energy independence for the United States. The book synthesizes the ideological foundation of numerous policies that were driven by President Obama's extreme liberalism in order to keep the base of the Democratic Party and major liberal donors in toe. Many of his policy choices were achieved by extraconstitutional methods such as Executive Orders and congressional paralysis instituted by Harry Reid. Meanwhile, the ranks of the poor, the underemployed, the too-discouraged to seek employment and those receiving food stamps rose at historical levels. Despite the most optimistic promises President Obama made, the US recovery continued anemic, The book will provoke much discussion, and perhaps strong disagreements and perhaps applause. It should, therefore, contribute to the vibrancy of our democracy and to the solidity of our constitution. | The Ideologue by Joe Khoury, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
