A thoughtful and articulate spokesman for conservative ideas, Daniel Hannan, a conservative British MEP, is better versed in America's traditions and founding documents than are many Americans. In The New Road to Serfdom, Hannan argues forcefully and passionately that Americans must not allow Barack Obama to take us down the road to European Unionstyle social democracy. He pleads with Americans not to abandon the founding principles that have made our country a beacon of liberty for the rest of the world. In this updated edition, Hannan explores Barack Obama's attitude toward Britain and offers an insightful analysis of what it reveals about Obama's perception of our country, our Constitution, and our exceptionalism.

people like jasonmt that review books without reading is whats wrong with our political landscape. daniel hannan is british and not part of the 'republican propaganda machine.' the book perfectly illustrates the importance of the constitution and why it requires protecting. this is an interesting read regardless of ideology.
