Not A Democracy

By C Howard Diaz

Written from the perspective of an American of Mexican descent who grew up as a child in the 1930s and 1940s, and as a teenager in the 1950s, and taught by a school system that still emphasized American history from the American viewpoint, Not a Democracy will probably be the last book Diaz will write, having authored three others under the name C. Howard Diaz. Diaz felt he needed to write this book to tie all the strings together about how to understand our Constitution by understanding the logic our Founders used when they created this marvelous document. The "Other Commentary" portions of this book are Diaz's comments on how these documents have been interpreted and misinterpreted. Mostly, misinterpreted.Diaz aims to take the complexity out of discussing our Constitution and Bill of Rights to give the reader a way of understanding these founding documents. There will be academics, scholars, intellectuals, and America haters who will disparage what he's written because he's oversimplified complex issues. But he, as an American with no degree, believes "complexity" is a tactic of tyrants, and degrees today are as equal to a high school diploma from those days.
