50PoundHead Hessmania Forever Nov 18, 2013 #84 Yeah, it's The Nation, but Rick Perlstein's article is pretty interesting whether or not you agree with it. Nation Link: http://www.thenation.com/article/177018/grand-old-tea-party Perlstein's Before the Storm: Barry Goldwater and the Unmaking of the American Consensus is a tremendous, even-handed book. I highly recommend it. PS--Remember that Kennedy was Catholic and was going to take his orders directly from the Pope! I don't see that listed.
