Glued binding. Paper over boards. With dust jacket. 281, [7] pages. Interviews. Notes. Inscription on fep signed by Cal Thomas. John Calvin Thomas (born 1942) is an American syndicated columnist, pundit, author and radio commentator. Thomas was born in 1942 in Washington, D.C. He attended the American University for his undergraduate education. During the 1960s and early 1970s he worked as a reporter at NBC News. His program on CNBC was nominated for a CableACE Award in 1995. His column, which began in 1984, is syndicated by Tribune Media Services. Thomas joined Fox News as a political contributor in 1997. He was a panelist on Fox News Watch, a Fox News Channel program criticizing the media. He also gives a daily radio commentary, which is heard on more than 300 stations. He has written 10 books, including Blinded By Might, that discussed the role of the Moral Majority in American politics of the 1980s. Thomas was vice president of the Moral Majority from 1980 to 1985." They called themselves the "Moral Majority" They failed in their stated objectives to end abortion, eliminate pornography, restore the American family, and usher in a world in which "traditional values" were embraced. Why is America no better after nearly twenty years of vigorous, sophisticated, and relentless political action by the church? Blinded by Might is the story of two men who were at the center of the Moral Majority. Cal Thomas and Ed Dobson argue that the reason the Moral Majority did not succeed is because it has been using the wrong tools in the wrong way for the wrong reasons. The authors show why the efforts of people like Jerry Falwell, Ralph Reed, and James Dobson were doomed from the start. They disclose inside information on a movement that they helped create in order to show why it failed. And they use their mistakes and the mistakes of others to point people of faith in a more positive direction. This stirring book offers a new vision for America from the architects of the Moral Majority.…
