Books Quote by Joseph Befumo
““I had to recommend only two books that every sincere, concerned American, Liberal or Conservative, should read, they would be A Republic, Not and Empire, and The Great Betrayal, both by Patrick J. Buchanan. Instead of heeding what those with a demonstrable axe to grind are telling you to think, get it directly from the source, and make up your own mind.””
