Resumen del Editor

Who is killing America? Is it really Donald Trump and a GOP filled with white supremacists? In a major new work of historical revisionism, Dinesh D’Souza makes the provocative case that Democrats are the ones killing America by turning it into a massive nanny state modeled on the Southern plantation system.

This sweeping alternative history of the Democratic Party goes back to its foundations in the antebellum South. The slaveholding elite devised the plantation as a means of organizing labor and political support. It was a mini-welfare state, a cradle-to-grave system that bred dependency and punished any urge to independence. This model impressed Northern Democrats, inspiring the political machines that traded government handouts for votes from ethnic immigrant blocs.

Today's Democrats have expanded to a multiracial plantation of ghettos for blacks, barrios for Latinos, and reservations for Native Americans. Whites are the only holdouts resisting full dependency, and so they are blamed for the bigotry and racial exploitation that is actually perpetrated by the left.

Death of a Nation's bracing alternative vision of American history explains the Democratic Party's dark past, reinterprets the roles of figures like Van Buren, FDR, and LBJ, and exposes the hidden truth that racism comes not from Trump or the conservative right but rather from Democrats and progressives on the left.

The very sad truth of our Nation! 💔

As with all his books this is a very accurate account of all the dirty little secrets that have all but been written out of our history. one can only imagine how great our Nation would be if our supposed ruling class put as much effort into doing what is right for We The People as they do their own interests!

Brilliant mind!

Dinesh D’Souza is one of the most brilliant minds of our time. He backs up his arguments with facts, not emotions. He provides a history that all Americans should know and understand, lest it be lost to the annals of history. As an immigrant himself, he gets this. It’s also great to listen to a book read by the author!

another great book from Dinesh

This book is packed with information. Dinesh has a good method of making his books enjoyable. This is my 3rd book of his and it won't be my last.

Historically packed truth bomb!

Finally, a book that lays out the truth about how we, as the USA, got to this point in history. The logical and historical examples help to bring to light the lie of racism used to destroy this great nation.
Also, this book lists the ideals and tactics used to destroy our country and is subsequently dismantled one by one by the author.
Absolutely a must-read!

Justification and playbook for our preservation

Historical perspective for an accurate view of today's conditions. Ample ammo for renewed effort to create a strong future. Read this, all you political "leaders."

EYE OPENING

Loved it, it was compelling and terrifying at the same time. How do you warn a busload of people they are headed for a cliff when they won't listen and berate you for telling them?

Great historical views of American politics

I love Dinesh D'Souza accounts and explanations of historical facts along with intense dealings with the different political parties both Democratic and Republican through-out the course of American history. I strongly advise anyone who wants to know history in a correct fashion to listen to this book Its great read, very interesting and very eye-opening as he tells the story of American political history and background.

Unbiased

This book is not only well written and narrated - by the author - it is unbiased in that it is fact-based. Mr. D’Sousa most likely knows the history of the United States better than the majority of US born citizens and to have researched the political system thoroughly. I was hesitant initially, fearing boredom, but that was not the case. I learned and enjoyed this read. I wish it had been longer. Guess I’ll have to buy more of his books

Excellent. Focused and very well done.

Dinesh D'Sousa really is growing. This book provides an organized review of a large body of fundamentally important American history that has been manipulated and purposely hidden. It's a breath of fresh air. You need to read this book regardless of your political persuasion. Do it for your children.

D’Souza is brilliant

This book is one of the best books I’ve read in along time. It was a history lesson for me...tying together many loose ends in my understanding. Well worth reading.
