"What's unique about the book is the way he spells out the problems
and then includes the arguments from those who don't believe they
are problems at all. He then proceeds to explain why those
arguments are wrong. . . . It's well worth the read."--Dave
Zweifel, The Capital Times
"A must read. Not just for the sake of Wisconsin, but for the
entire country, and many states around the country."--Brian G.
Gilmore, Medium
"Essential for politically aware citizens as well as journalists
and watchdogs who see Wisconsin as a crucial battleground state and
political bellwether for the nation. . . . [This] should be
mandatory reading by every citizen of voting age as a kind of
political DIY survival guide for democracy. Simply stated, 12 Ways
To Save Democracy should be a part of every highschool civics class
curriculum and every college, university, and community library
Contemporary Political Science collection throughout the state of
Wisconsin - and beyond!"--Midwest Book Review
"No one's more qualified than Rothschild to write a book exposing
how Wisconsin government morphed from being a shining light for the
nation into one of the country's most antidemocratic states. He
gives us an easy-to-follow plan on how we can restore the state's
reputation for honest and innovative leadership."--Dave Zweifel,
editor emeritus of The Capital Times
"Rothschild explains exactly what needs to be done to return
Wisconsin to its status as the most democratic of these United
States. This book is a pleasure to read, chock full of valuable
research and original insights. He is a writer who will not waste
your time."--Robert McChesney, author of People Get Ready
