Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One Hell of a Candidate traces the fate of Republican Congressman T. Claude "Buzzer" LeBrand who hails from the Sixth--an imaginary Southern district that has fallen on hard economic times. Poor Buzzer has barely survived his last election when videotape of him frolicking with bikini-clad bimbos in St. Kitts ends up on the evening news. And just as his political career lacks any sort of pulse, Buzzer has a heart attack in a D.C. Metro station, hits his head on the escalator, and falls into a coma. As Buzzer's life hangs in the balance, the machinations to fill his seat in Congress begin. A slew of politically hopeless characters emerge in the battle for Buzzer's seat. Among them are Bobby Diddie Ricky, a handsome black Democrat who is a former pro football star running on the largely inane "Team Concept." "Holy Joe" Wholey who believes the Ten Commandments should be amended into the Constitution. Bo Beaumont, owner/tyrant of Big Bo Stores and Republican kingpin. Susan Weinstein, a Jewish lebsian Marxist down from New York to teach the ignorant people of the Sixth what's best for them. And of course, Buzzer's wife Georgie, who if she can put down the bottle and remember the message, would make one hell of a candidate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I opened my eyes. I wasn't dreaming. I was awake. And right beside me, Jennifer was panting and moaning and bouncing up and down on the bed. I stared harder into the darkness, chilled with fright, and against the dim gray light that filtered in through the closely-drawn drapes, I saw an outline on top of Jennifer that made me cram my hand into my mouth to stop myself from screaming. It was a huge, bulky outline, as dark as sin. But its eyes glowed slanted and orange, like the eyes of a wolf, and on its head were two curved horns. It stank of stale incense and animal sweat, and it was grunting with grotesque delight. When businessman Hunter Peal decided to run for President of the USA, they said he didn't have a chance in Hell ... but they were wrong. Initially he seemed pleasant and moderate ... but then everything started to change. As his popularity grew, so did his ability to influence people, sending them weeping to their knees, and seeing sights which no cameras could capture. And what of his opponents and the strange 'accidents' which befel them? Indeed, Hunter Peal was not the man he once was ... one of the denizens of Hell has made a pact with him, and on his inauguration, all Hell will be let loose. Literally. Telos Publishing is proud to present a superb new edition of this long out-of-print 1981 novel. A horrific tale of lust and greed and power from one of the genre's greatest writers, Graham Masterton. 'If you like horror novels, the kind that make you catch your breath at certain parts, can change your perception of the temperature in the room and leave you with impressions that can't be unseen for days - if ever - then this is your book. It really is an absolute masterpiece and in my opinion one of the weirdest, most twisted horror tales ever told, where the message, "Be careful who you vote for" really makes a hell of a lot of sense.' Cat DeSpira, Retrobitch

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warning: The Candidates: Based on a True Country is not for the faint of heart. It is a political satire of epic disproportion. The story centers on Skip LaDouche and Harry Pinko, the two front-runners campaigning for the presidency of the United States, who have managed to claw, bribe, and scam their way up the political ladder. They are what we’ve come to expect from our leaders: self-serving and unqualified. When Kimmy Faimwhorre, the reality television star that they are both having an affair with, turns up murdered, the candidates take campaigning to its most primal form . . . complete and total destruction of the opposition. Nothing is sacred in this violently comic short novel from Matthew S. Hiley. His wit is sharp and quick, and this story is dark, cynical, and hilarious. Politics-as-usual and pop-culture are thoroughly skewered in one of the most absurd and entertaining stories ever told.

Book excerpt: Three politicians jockey for position in the early part of 2008. Senator Robert Fox has already secured his party's nomination, but Senators Jeannette Freddo Reynolds and Thaddeus Tasman are locked in a dogfight for theirs. A load of highly dangerous weapons is in transit from the Arizona manufacturer to Fort Hood, Texas. A very sophisticated hijack plot interrupts their journey and the President, his Cabinet, and the U.S. military have to figure out how to get them out of the wrong hands. Early in his first of three tours in Vietnam, Detective Hunter Morgan learned never to say the following: "Well, things can't get any worse than this!" They can and do when a sniper starts shooting in Baltimore. Railroad catastrophes take place on both sides of the country and terrorists strike two major American airports, driving the elections news into the background temporarily, until one of the primary candidates turns up missing . . . last seen with a Secret Service Agent. 

Book excerpt: Money in Politics: Campaign Fundraising in the 2020 Presidential Election illustrates political fundraising’s importance in the 2020 presidential election from the party primaries through the General Election. Cayce Myers addresses how the role of corporate donations, individual contributors, and small donorship have become political talking points. Specific attention is given to the evolution of political fundraising, including a discussion regarding super-PACs, joint fundraising committees, and campaign committees. Myers explores how modern fundraising prowess serves as a barrier to successful entry into top tier candidacy but does not necessarily guarantee victory.

Book excerpt: Aust'n. Suspense fiction. Some time soon, Queen Elizabeth II narrowly escapes a terrorist bombing and abdicates in favour of Prince Charles. Following his coronation, the Australian pro-republican movement renews its call for a referendum on the monarchy. This time, they succeed and attention is turned to the election of the country's first president. Australian-born Michael Takada, whose father is Japanese, wins selection for Queensland, and represents his state in the presidential election. But there are many who, for racially motivated reasons, are intent on preventing him reaching public office - including the Western Australian candidate, David Shawcross. When Takada and Shawcross become the main contenders for the presidency, Takada is targeted by a fanatical but disorganised right wing organisation and later, by a small but sophisticated white supremacist terrorist group. He suffers racist taunts, hate mail, his son's kidnapping, bombings, the attempted murder of his father and his wife and the murders of close friends. As the election nears, his political aspirations are soured by the uncovering by a young reporter of an atrocity committed by his grandfather on the Kokoda Trail in 1942. Shawcross is an equally popular candidate but is tormented from within, his racist views, hard drinking and womanising almost costing him his earlier political career. Despite their roller coaster ride, they are equally determined to be the country's first president. When racism is allowed to get out of control, it can wreak havoc, even in one of the world's most politically stable nations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Lies of Sarah Palin, Geoffrey Dunn provides the first full-scale and in-depth political biography of the controversial Republican vice-presidential candidate and former governor of Alaska. Based on more than two-hundred interviews---many of them with Republican colleagues and one-time political allies of Palin's---and more than forty-thousand pages of uncovered documents, Dunn chronicles Palin's troubling penchant for duplicity in grim detail, from her dysfunctional childhood in Wasilla through her contentious run for mayor and her failed governorship of Alaska. He also provides the shocking inside story of her betrayal of running mate John McCain during the 2008 presidential campaign and her self-serving resignation as governor in July of the following year. Dunn deftly places Palin in the American tradition of right-wing demagogues---from Huey Long to Joe McCarthy---and details her troubling obsession with Barack Obama as it fuels her own political ambitions and a potential run for the presidency in 2012. The Lies of Sarah Palin is a journalistic tour de force that vividly reveals the Queen of the Tea Party movement as a vengeful and manipulative empress without clothes. This is the definitive book on Sarah Palin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you like politics, or even if you don’t, or if you’ve ever wondered why someone would ever run for political office, The Golden Goose Ate The Grassroots will more than hold your interest. However, if you have ever wondered what kind of person would throw his hat into the ring with little chance of winning; if you take your humor subtle, and tend to root for the underdog, The Golden Goose Ate The Grassroots is a “must read”. You will chuckle, you will laugh out loud, you will cry, you will shake your head at the absurdity of our political process, and you will come away with an understanding of the campaign intricacies that can only be imparted by someone who has “been-there-done-that. This candidate was probably the most under-funded, non-experienced candidate in the nation. Yet, the candidate/author received over 86,000 votes, enough to be elected in a lot of congressional districts in the country. He had no political experience or connections, no name recognition, no money, no organization, and no idea what he was doing. Yet, he ran against a super-funded two-term incumbent in a two to one negative demographic district, navigated the minefield that has befallen countless politically seasoned hopefuls, and still managed to scare the hell out of his opponent -- and make a statement. Had he won, this would be the political “How To” book of the year. That he didn’t, makes it an even greater story, and there are no sour grapes crushed between these covers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FDR's Republicans illuminates the debate over foreign policy that took place in the United States prior to World War II. Robert E. Jenner approaches this issue from the perspective of Republican members of the House and Senate, who eventually came to support the interventionist position of a Democratic president. Unlike other diplomatic histories of this period, FDR's Republicans focuses on domestic components of the foreign policy debate, combining historical analysis and political theory. Jenner recounts the Republican Party's internationalist roots under McKinley, the split of 1912, and the defeat of the League of Nations in deference to its agrarian progressive wing. Taking both a local and national approach, he provides in-depth analysis of the party's reaction to the FDR landslides of 1932 and 1936, the party's resurgence in 1938, FDR's aggressive defense of the New Deal, and the decline of the party's agrarian progressive faction. The result is a broader explanation of the battle that raged between isolationists and interventionists as well as the failure of policy makers to deter fascism at an earlier date.
