The Third Party Candidate: In a Divided States of America
The world’s peerless beacon of freedom is under attack from within, on the verge of collapse, and destined to join all other nation-states on the trash heap of former greatness. Legislators choose party over country. Presidents favor themselves. Emotions rule the judiciary. Media propagandize.
For a people divided, another presidential election year is in full glory. Political parties eviscerate their own candidates. Proponents extoll the virtues of their chosen peacocks and denigrate opponents, providing plausible deniability for their embraced aspirants. The nominal candidates blame each other, past presidents, opposing political parties, Congress, and the Supreme Court for America’s ailments — promising their own cures.
Into this political maelstrom charges Augustus Lincoln Treatise. In his mind intellectually dishonest, political operatives, driveling cowards, banal wimps, and venal elites are bent on dissolving the adhesive that binds the unique civilization. This contentious third party political adversary abandons much of his prior pragmatism and competes in the realm of outlandish — fighting opponents with his own preposterousness.
Does he succeed?

A very interesting book given the current U.S. and world political climate and events. More in depth character development. A standalone read and/or a sequel to "President You."
