Karine Jean-Pierre

Independent (eBook, ePUB)

A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A groundbreaking, revelatory assessment of America's broken two-party system. Rachel Maddow calls it "a brave firecracker of a book." In a country obsessed with blind loyalty to a two-party democratic system, Karine Jean-Pierre, former White House press secretary to the Biden-Harris administration, shares why Americans must step beyond party lines to embrace life as Independents. Jean-Pierre didn't come to her decision to be an Independent lightly. She has served two American presidents, Obama and Biden. In 2020, she joined Biden's campaign as a senior adviser, becoming Harris's chief of staff and then two years later, White House press secretary. She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden's abandonment of his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision. In an urgent, timely analysis, Independent asks all Americans to vote their values and maintain their individuality within party lines. She presents clear arguments and provocative evidence from her time as an insider about the importance of dismantling the torrent of disinformation and misinformation that has been rampant during recent elections and provides passionate insight for ways to move forward. In a hard-hitting-yet-hopeful critique, Jean-Pierre defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent, explains why it can be worthwhile to carve oneself a political ideology true to personal beliefs rather than a party affiliation, and provides the questions you need to ask yourself to determine where you fit politically. As a history maker, veteran public servant, political analyst, and independent thinker, she urges Americans to think outside of the blue-and-red box as we consider what's next to save our democracy.
