"The Underdog in American Politics "is an original analysis of how
the underdog concept applies to the Democratic Party and American
politics and culture. In particular, it analyzes how the power of
the underdog has shaped, and reflected, the politics of Democrats
running for president. From Thomas Jefferson to Barack Obama, the
author uses biography, ideology, campaign strategy and public
policies to depict the many different points of contact between
Democrats and underdogs. The core values of equality, fairness and
non-discrimination are analyzed. The role of sympathy and empathy
towards underdogs is also examined.
