Reviews"Every once in a while American historians will be polled regarding the men they consider the greatest presidents. Without fail, they choose those people most dedicated to the expansion of government. In this outstanding book, Brion McClanahan blasts these historians to smithereens, and reveals the true history of the dangerous men who are known as our great presidents. It's about time someone did!" --Tom Woods, author of Nullification: How to Resist Federal Tyranny in the 21st Century and The Politically Incorrect Guide(tm) to American History "This book is both a fascinating read by a master historian and a necessary guide for any voter." --Kevin R. C. Gutzman, author of James Madison and the Making of America and The Politically Incorrect Guide(tm) to the Constitution "Congratulations to Brion McClanahan. As a true American historian, he tells the truth about the rogues' gallery of US presidents, who have stolen our freedoms, and killed millions in the process. And what great prose!" --Llewellyn H. Rockwell Jr., founding chairman of the Ludwig von Mises Institute "Mr. McClanahan has a hit on his hands, or should. He lays out a case, in plain English, how each of nine presidents "Screwed up" our country. It is a fascinating and factual accounting of presidential usurpation of power...This book is entertaining and educational - a feat which is all too difficult to achieve. I must say, I am smarter for reading it." --Brent Smith, The Daily Caller "Brion McClanahan presents a masterful and superbly-scholarly discussion of how nine presidents, beginning with George Washington himself, effectively destroyed constitutional government." --Thomas DiLorenzo, LewRockwell.com, "Every once in a while American historians will be polled regarding the men they consider the greatest presidents.

SynopsisOf the forty-four presidents who have led the United States, nine made mistakes that permanently scarred the nation. Which nine? Brion McClanahan, author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Founding Fathers and The Founding Fathers' Guide to the Constitution , will surprise readers with his list, which he supports with exhaustive and entertaining evidence. 9 Presidents Who Screwed Up America is a new look back at American history that unabashedly places blame for our nation's current problems on the backs of nine very flawed men., If you think America is screwed up … If you wonder how we got from the confident, heroic, liberty-loving America of the past to the depressed, divided, and degraded America of the present (and maybe the future) … You'll find the answer here in 9 Presidents Who Screwed Up America. The best presidents, historian Brion McClanahan shows, are the ones who see their role as limited, constitutional, chief executives of the republic, nothing more, nothing less. The worst are the ones who want to "reform" the country through the power of the federal government, which usually means usurping the power of Congress-or the people-and circumventing the Constitution. The only true way to grade a president is not on the "reforms" or changes he instituted, but on how well he kept his oath of office to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." McClanahan shows how some of our most celebrated presidents were among the worst offenders of that oath and sowed the seeds of future corruption. Sprightly, provocative, and readable, Professor McClanahan provides an eye-opening look at America's presidents.
