Mr. B. Thomas Marking epub THE NINTH CAUCUS: Volume II of the Democracy Saga

This is Volume II of The Democracy Saga – the story of American citizen patriots re-inventing their political system. In Volume I, “Amendment XXIX,” the major political parties stumbled, just as a new voice emerged that resonated with all those who understood that America’s political system was broken. T. J. Carroll becomes the candidate of the new Voice of Independence Party and wins a narrow victory in the election for President of the United States. Under the guiding hand of President T. J. Carroll, the twenty-ninth amendment becomes a reality. It establishes a national referendum system whereby the Citizenry may determine the policies that most affect their lives. In this second volume, “The Ninth Caucus,” you witness America’s innovative new form of Democracy in action. Share the adventures of Mrs. Christine Whitcomb as she discovers, and defines, what it means to be a Citizen in the new America. She now belongs to the fourth, and highest, branch of government – the Citizenry. Christine, and six other volunteers, have been selected for a special task. Sequestered at a secret site, they must come together to identify the national policy issues worthy of the next national referendum. Not everyone is rooting for their success. Can these ordinary citizens rise to such an awesome responsibility?
