Morally Good Politician : Why Our Politicians Are So Bad and How to Create Ones That Will Respect and Protect Our Rights

Presents a stunning analysis of Al Gore's EITB, identifying the roots of Gore's thinking in philosopher Kant; relies on parallels other psychiatrists & philosophers have drawn between Kant, nihilism, & schizophrenia; & submits for criticism the thesis that Gore himself is a power-driven nihilist, who in Kantian fashion, doubts the reality of the sensible world including the reality of himself & other human beings & admits of characteristically schizophrenic thoughts & feelings. Concludes with an admonition that Al Gore be dropped from the 1996 Presidential ticket, certain that his capacity to be president is seriously impaired by his Kantian-influenced, "paralyzing", epistemological, moral & psychological problems, which otherwise jeopardize the safety & security of the American people. Balancing complement to EITB. PLUS: why are politicians are so bad; how to create ones that will respect & protect our rights; why religion is not the base of freedom; why the Religious Right is not right or OF the right; why the great number of churches in the U.S. actually indicates the SECULARIZATION of America; validates a woman's right to choose, exposing pragmatist attempts to undermine that right; how to prevent recessions from happening EVER again.Kraus, Lorenz F. is the author of 'Morally Good Politician : Why Our Politicians Are So Bad and How to Create Ones That Will Respect and Protect Our Rights', published 1995 under ISBN 9780964744615 and ISBN 0964744619.
