The Declaration of Independence of the United States of America has long shone as a beacon of hope for people all over the world. Yet, though much progress has been made towards putting the ideals expressed in that document into practice, our nation remains today a long way from fulfilling the promise implied by those ideals. This book explores the large gap between the reality and the highest ideals of the United States of America, along with the anti-Democratic forces that are today threatening to make that gap ever wider and split our nation apart.
