The Way Forward : Renewing the American Idea

THE WAY FORWARD challenges conventional thinking, outlines his political vision for 2014 and beyond, and shows how essential conservatism is for the future of our nation. Beginning with a careful analysis of the 2012 election - including a look at the challenge the GOP had in reaching a majority of voters and the prevalence of identity politics - Ryan examines the state of the Republican party and dissects its challenges going forward. THE WAY FORWARD also offers a detailed critique of not only President Obama but of the progressive movement as a whole - its genesis, its underlying beliefs and philosophies, and how its policies are steering the country to certain ruin. Culminating in a plan for the future, WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? argues that the Republican Party is and must remain a conservative party, emphasising conservatism in a way that demonstrates how it can modernise and appeal to both our deepest concerns and highest ideals.
