The Way Forward: Renewing the American Idea -- Paul Ryan

<b>From the intellectual leader of the Republican party, an unvarnished look into the state of the conservative movement today and a clear plan for what needs to be done to save the American Idea.</b> <p/><i>The Way Forward</i> challenges conventional thinking, outlines his political vision for 2014 and beyond, and shows how essential conservatism is for the future of our nation. <p/> 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. <p/><i>The Way Forward</i> 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. <p/> Culminating in a plan for the future, <i>The Way Forward</i> argues that the Republican Party is and must remain a conservative party, emphasizing conservatism in a way that demonstrates how it can modernize and appeal to both our deepest concerns and highest ideals.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Paul Ryan<br><b>Publisher:</b> Twelve<br><b>Published:</b> 08/25/2015<br><b>Pages:</b> 304<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.50lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.00h x 5.30w x 0.80d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781455557578<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br><b>Paul Ryan</b> has served as the United States
