A young New Mexican senator caught in the designs of a manipulative White House and the draining world of political partisanship, Truth Shapers is the story of how Jonathon Oldfield fights back against a Washington political system that keeps America from being good and not just great. And through all of it he must seek a way of keeping his family from becoming one of the fallouts of modern political life. 'No president alone can alter our decline and democracy can never survive that is based upon secrets, private enrichment or naked ambition. I only require my peers - all 300 million of them - to make the best choice on the basis of the information available to them.' Oldfield’s plea to the nation continues to be a rallying cry for a better politics throughout the world today. Democracy’s only way forward is through the striving and sacrifice of the average citizen determined to build a better world out of the ashes of self-serving political designs and a rampant consumer culture.
