James Carville & Paul Begala Take It Back: Our Party, Our Country, Our Future CD Audio Book

James Carville & Paul Begala Take It Back 5 CDs (unabridged)

Reader: James Carville & Paul Begala

With the inimitable styles for which they are known, Democratic political consultants Carville and Begala dissect the 2000 and 2004 elections when Republicans triumphed over Democrats and take a long-range look at the national impact of the Bush-Cheney years. Rather than cry over the recent losses, Carville and Begala applaud the strengths of the Republicans and strongly advise the Democrats to recast the respective images of the two parties and take the lead on social and cultural issues. On abortion, Democrats need to stand up to pressure groups and advocate to reduce the need for abortions; on gun control, they should respect gun owners and enforce the laws already on the books; on Iraq, they should challenge Bush to win the war and respect the military; on energy, they should push for independence on oil; on taxes, they should advocate for taxation of wealth. Citing numerous instances of Democrats shying from identification with religion, the consultants strongly advise that those who have such beliefs should express them, and the party should point to the religious basis of policies to provide for the poor and protect the environment. With great humor and frequent jabs at the Bush administration--Louisiana native Carville is particularly incensed about the handling of the New Orleans flooding--these consultants offer a thoughtful and passionate appeal for change in the Democratic Party and the nation.
