关于此电子书

This book, written by Dr. Everett E. Murdock, a college professor, tells the stories behind the story of every presidential election in U.S. history, with a special focus on the volatile 2016 election. Dr. Murdock is a widely-published novelist, a storyteller, and his stories about our presidential elections provide fascinating details about behind-the-scenes events that lead to one candidate becoming president and the other being relegated to the lonely halls of history. He explores, in depth, the complex Electoral College System by which we elect our presidents, and he describes the role that slavery played in how the Congress and the Electoral College were originally designed. In his last chapter, Professor Murdock provides a detailed description of the events that unfolded day-by-day in the volatile election of 2016 that pitted the first woman candidate, Hillary Clinton, against, Donald Trump, one of the most unusual candidates in U.S. history. The author provides real insight into what led to one of the most dramatic upsets in U.S. presidential election history, helping you to understand why, once again, the candidate that won the general election didn’t get to be president.
