Book Description
The second edition of Distractions is an updated copy of the original book written in 2018. Part I (Conservative Strategies) outlines how conservatives deal with the critical issues of communications, the economy, the electoral process, the law, and DEMOCRACY. Part II (The “G’s”) focuses on the issue areas used mainly by the GOP to gain acceptance in the eyes of the general public. An additional chapter has been added — “Gerrymandering”. With the advent of Citizens United, The Gutting of the 1965 Voting Rights Act with the ruling in the Shelby Co. v. Holder case, The Chiafalo v. Washington case, Heller, and Dobbs v. Jackson already decided, Gerrymandering became the cherry atop the sundae. Afterword has been revised and an appendix added which includes: A Timeline, An example of a Literacy Test, and a copy of the Constitution of the Confederate States of America with cited changes from the U.S. Constitution. Examples of the media gaslighting its reading audience for ratings and the profits they generate are included as well. Emphasis are placed on the future of the GOP after the Trump led fiasco of January 6th. There is also a great deal of attention placed on the lead-up to the 2024 General Election under the pending dispositions of the various Trump indictments. Conservatives’ immigration woes and their fear of the United States becoming a “Colored” country are discussed, and gun violence and the policing of the Black man in America is given added attention, and the Biographical section was expanded.

Book Description
As far back as middle school, I developed a passion for understanding what motivated people to take the political positions they were taking. I wondered why most people couldnt see clear things clearly and why they had to be told what politicians thought and felt. Couldnt they see that for themselves? I also wondered why some people seemed to wait until things happened or unfolded before they began telling everybody why they were better than the other guy at solving the problem. I guess it wasnt until my sophomore year in high school that I began reading more in-depth American history, especially American political history. I became interested in the second Adlai StevensonDwight Eisenhower presidential race. I didnt know anything about politics or economics. All I knew was that we didnt have very much and some other people had lots, lots more. I thought Stevenson was on the side of those that didnt have very much, so obviously, I wanted him to win. Little did I know that he was running against a Republican war hero and that Republicans were trying to paint the Democratic Party as sellouts because of their 1948 and 1952 platforms on racial desegregation. I had no idea that everything said in a presidential campaign didnt have to be the truth. I didnt think these grown men would lie just to win a job. Of course, I had lots of growing up to do. So from that point forward, I committed myself to the pursuit of truth in politics. I found that uncovering the truth about the American political process in the twenty-first century was far more than just a notion, and theres still lots left to do.

Book Description
. Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.
