Steve Kerbel's exploration of American politics reveals a deeper truth beyond the typical Left-Right divide. He argues that aligning with one side can obscure a more significant threat that exists within both. By presenting a third perspective, Kerbel draws on a lifetime of insights, culminating in fifty thought-provoking points that challenge conventional political narratives. This book is ideal for those interested in a nuanced understanding of politics, informed by historical context. Kerbel emphasizes that complete agreement in politics is elusive; ultimately, we all hold independent beliefs. The framers of the Constitution warned against political parties, advocating for independent candidates who would serve temporarily and then step aside. His work encourages reflection and debate, making it a valuable read for anyone seeking a broader view of political discourse. Gary Johnson, the 2016 Libertarian Party Presidential Nominee, praises Kerbel's thought-provoking approach, acknowledging that while readers may not agree with every point, the book fosters important discussions. Johnson, who ran for the Libertarian nomination alongside Kerbel, commends his character and dedication to the country's future. This book invites readers to engage critically with political ideas and consider the complexities of freedom and governance.
