“Indeed. I wrote a history of the Republican Party.”

AND ... has been working closely with Michael Steele and the GOP for some time, trying to reshape history and fashion a new “Southern Strategy” to present the party as racially tolerant, and to stress its anti-slavery history.

“The new site’s “Heroes” section touts various historically important Republicans, many of whom are minorities. At the bottom of each entry, readers interested in “more information on these and other Accomplishments of the Republican Party” are directed, with a link, to a book called Back to Basics for the Republican Party, by Michael Zak - a book that is ten years old and it’s out of print. But the first few pages, as well as the table of contents and the index pages, are available on Amazon. But they also show that it’s not, shall we say, a particularly rigorous piece of scholarship.”

Anybody can write a book. And keep pimping it, long after it has been roundly ignored.
