James McPherson calls the election of 1860 "undeniably the most important—and pivotal—in all of American history." The nation was not merely divided over the issue of slavery; the opposing camps were at each other's throats. The moment John Brown and his men attacked the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry in the fall of 1859 the compromises that had stitched the country together for decades unraveled. The presidential election was therefore about more than who the next president would be. It was about how soon war would follow his inauguration.

選挙結果は民意の反映と言われるが，ここにいう「民意」や「結果」の意味は曖昧である．これらの言葉の背景には何があるのか？一票の価値の較差が二倍にも三倍にもなるのを，なぜ，司法は許容しているのか？　なぜ，衆院選では小選挙区と比例区と二つあるのか？選挙の仕組みと憲法の観点から「公正な代表」の姿を問う！

What if the way you vote has less to do with what you want than with what you have been taught to fear? For decades, a pattern has repeated itself in American politics with a precision that almost defies belief. Economies rise and fall. Leaders come and go. Parties trade power. And yet the same cycle returns, again and again, as if on a timer. Most voters feel it. Few can explain it. Douglas Hines, a software engineer trained in math, logic, and probability, spent decades doing what analysts do: following the data, tracing the pattern, and asking the question most people never think to ask.

Every major nation on Earth is governed by someone you wouldn’t trust to park your car. From aging strongmen who confuse their own biography with history to ambitious young demagogues who confuse their Instagram following with a mandate, the global political class has achieved something remarkable: unanimous, bipartisan, cross-cultural incompetence. Meanwhile, automated systems already fly your planes, regulate your power grid, and manage the supply chains that keep civilization from starving.

Beginning with his early days on the Yale campus with two future presidents, three future senators, and three future governors, few politicos have found themselves closer to the people who matter most in both American political parties in the past three decades than Lanny Davis. Shortly after graduating from Yale Law School in the early 1970s, Davis first met Hillary Rodham—a promising law student he thought would be the first president of the baby boomer generation . . . until she introduced him to an up-and-coming political star named Bill Clinton.

In Life of the Party, the former U.S. Congressman and South Carolina gubernatorial candidate delivers a frank, deeply personal, and unflinching diagnosis of what ails the Democratic Party — and a clear-eyed prescription for how it can recover. Drawing on his unlikely 2018 congressional victory in one of the reddest districts in the South and his front-row seat to the party's most consequential failures, Cunningham makes the case that Democrats didn't just lose elections — they lost the trust of everyday Americans. The problem, he argues, isn't Donald Trump. It's the party itself.

In this book, Joe Albanese observes that when the Electoral College was established in 1787, there were no daily newspapers, and it took weeks for important news to reach the public. Moreover, the nation had just obtained its independence after a brutal war. The author lays out the pros and cons of the Electoral College system, making the case that how we elect our president runs contrary to principles of an equal democratic government. He also answers questions such as: Does the Electoral College system pose a danger to democracy? Why has the concept of one person, one vote been overlooked?
