"Today's Republican Party places itself at an immense disadvantage. Rather than express clearly what we should be for -- the free market society we Republicans won the Civil War to preserve -- on too many issues, too often our Party's policy is merely that we are against whatever Democrats are for, or perhaps we want less of it than they do. Our Party is an athlete who has lost his balance -- we are in good shape, with plenty of drive, but until we regain our footing we are going nowhere."

I cannot help agreeing with your statement. Also, I cannot help noticing that this is the exact approach to political "debate" taken by the Democrats. Neither party would like to be tagged with being for or against certain basic principles. Mostly because neither seems to have any basic principles.

Who is responsible for setting the Republican Party agenda, leaving aside the personal agenda of Bush Jr., and why are they tolerated?

I sincerely hope your book does well. It deals with subject matter that needs to be examined by all who consider themselves to be Republicans.

Thank you, sir. Many prominent Republican politicians have praised it to the skies, but not one has lifted a finger to spread the word about it. This lethargy on the part of the GOP is what I wrote the book to cure.

The book answers your agenda question and many, many more.
