Editorial Reviews

"Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, The Constitution Needs a Good Party ... is as insightfully thoughtful and thought-provoking as it is ultimately hopeful and inspiring. An especially timely and unreservedly recommended addition to ... American Political Science collections and supplemental curriculum studies lists ... [Also recommended] for the personal reading lists of students, academia, social activists, political reformers, governmental policy makers, and non-specialist general readers with an interest in the subject ..."
- Midwest Book Review

"Most politicians of both major parties totally ignore the Constitution ... James Anthony argues that a new political party is needed, a party that consists of individuals who recognize that the Constitution gives the federal government limited powers. Millions of Americans have awakened to what is going on in their country. Perhaps it is not too late to turn the ship of state around."
