America's historic greatness is in decline, subverted by moneyed special interests and their lobbyists who game our political system to thwart the people's majority will to end military adventures undertaken as corporate boondoggles, curb global warming, make equitable minimum wage adjustments, foster stem cell research, and establish universal health care. Based on extensive and deep interviews, Moss portrays the motivations and modus operandi of each of the types of players in the corruption of the American political system to betray the legitimate interests of the American people. He quantifies the gains reaped by the system manipulators and by indirect beneficiaries, and measures the historic deterioration in the quality of our political candidates and elected officials as a function of campaign finance distortions. Selling Out America's Democracy focuses on composite types of the political players who are the tools of connivance and objects of control by the special interests: * Democratic congressional staff * Republican congressional staff * Washington lobbyists * media representatives * diplomats * non-profit citizen advocacy group staff Moss concludes by advancing a program of policy changes calculated to revive our democracy.
