The Election of Everyman - Aidan De Vries - Bog

When the new President takes office, Dr. Ivan Welland's term as Secretary of Defense is over. He agrees to chair the Foundation for Democracy Research, whose mandate is to design a presidential election system that will better serve America. Welland is soon involved in secret machinations that take place out of sight of the voters, but that have immense consequences for Americans. Dr. Welland's effort to restore democracy, amend the Constitution, and force the corrupt and treasonous President to return to the principles of the founding fathers becomes a deadly adventure that takes the reader into the realm of murderous power mongers, FBI investigations, and federal prosecutions by the U.S. Attorney. This thought-provoking cautionary tale is the fifth political thriller by Aidan de Vries. It may be almost prescient in its reflection of possible future events, and is certain to challenge every reader's ideas of what democracy is and should be.
