By contrast, the BEST book I have read this season is Uncivil War. Using the author's thesis of New Elites versus the Have-Not's, the 2004 election was predictable. It's a read much worth the paper it's printed on!
I can tell you why he stays on the bestseller list. But you will not like it.
His book is a textbook and therefore is purchased by government funded learning institutions. In other words your tax dollars go to this leftist fool so each year his book can teach a whole new crop of young Americans why they should hate America.
The mind boggles at such but alas it is true.
