Description
Karachi, Pakistan is where the story begins and Kernersville, North Carolina is where it ends. The reader travels through time and lives the environment the author grew up in. How his thought process was shaped by his upbringing and schooling. The first part of the book recounts lighthearted memories of growing up while attending Catholic Schools run by Nuns and Public Schools administered by the Army. After attending an American sponsored Missionary College he moved to the United States. Always interested in politics this is where he found himself, right in the middle of the great American divide. The political wars started on day two in college at the University of Maryland in College Park. One roommate was a bleeding heart liberal, the other one a perfect stereotype of a hard hat muscle! Both trying to influence the authors ideological mindset and trying to make this newcomer a proper American. This mental tug of war continues down the road as the author traverses through the savage jungle of the media pundits. Right wing nut or left wing looney? After going a complete cycle the author finally takes a stand and this is where he plans to stay. Read all about it!
