Download or read book Coup written by Keel Hunt and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coup is the behind-the-scenes story of an abrupt political transition, unprecedented in U.S. history. Based on 163 interviews, Hunt describes how collaborators came together from opposite sides of the political aisle and, in an extraordinary few hours, reached agreement that the corruption and madness of the sitting Governor of Tennessee, Ray Blanton, must be stopped. The sudden transfer of power that caught Blanton unawares was deemed necessary because of what one FBI agent called "the state's most heinous political crime in half a century"--a scheme of selling pardons for cash. On January 17, 1979, driven by new information that some of the worst criminals in the state's penitentiaries were about to be released (and fears that James Earl Ray might be one of them), a small bipartisan group chose to take charge. Senior Democratic leaders, friends of the sitting governor, together with the Republican governor-elect Lamar Alexander (now U.S. Senator from Tennessee), agreed to oust Blanton from office before another night fell. It was a maneuver unique in American political history. From the foreword by John L. Seigenthaler: "The individual stories of those government officials involved in the coup--each account unique, but all of them intersecting--were scattered like disconnected pieces of a jigsaw puzzle on the table of history until the author conceived this book. Perhaps because it happened so quickly, and without major disagreement, protest, or dissent, this truly historic moment has been buried in the public mind. In unearthing the drama in gripping detail, Keel Hunt assures that the 'dark day' will be remembered as a bright one in which conflicted politicians came together in the public interest."

Download or read book Oust the Dictator written by Mehr A. Kalami and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since millennials, mankind has destroyed and dictated over humankind in the most brutal manner. From total obscurity, the chosen candidate is introduced and promoted by enablers through the International Political Mafia and Global Imperialism and Colonialism. The now powerful dictator is but a puppet of these internationals. Time and often the dictator barely realizes being a servitor of those power-wielders behind the curtain. This applies to Donald J. Trump whose ego and shortcomings made him easily manipulated by those in the Kremlin and other global Mafia bosses. What would be the scenario had Donald J. Trump won the second term in the 2020 presidential elections? Would he begin his term by first suspending the Constitution, declaring martial law, and appointing himself as the Martial Law Administrator? Considering the fact that he played a pivotal role in sending more than fifty thousand rioters to the Capitol Building to riot on his behalf on January 6, 2021 to overturn the presidential election results in his favor through violence and threats. It is easily possible that he could muster nearly five million fanatics and professional agitators to commit wanton acts of violence against those he despises. Perhaps sanity and logic could teach us a lesson to remember and never forget. Ousting the dictator once he is identified; and confronting him or her through non-violence is the only avenue to usher in peace and tranquility.

In that battle, members of the local Klan whipping teams are prosecuted and sent to jail along with county Klan leaders. At the state level in late 1923, the Klan controlled legislature impeaches and removes Claude's ally, Governor Jack Walton of Oklahoma. At the same time, the state attorney general, a Ku Klux Klan supporter, puts Claude on trial on charges of bribery, drunkenness and failure to conduct a special election as mandated by the legislature. Threatened, shot at, physically beaten, and hauled into court, can Claude save himself and win his battle to rid the county of the Ku Klux Klan?"--Cover.

Download or read book Agrarian Problems in the Sixteenth Century and After written by Eric Kerridge and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting a full and precise description of all legal ties between landlord and tenant in early modern England, Agrarian Problems in the Sixteenth Century and After re-examines one of the key issues in English agrarian history - the question of the legal security of the copyholder. Comparing historical records and literary evidence, Agrarian Problems in the Sixteenth Century and After reprints much of the important 1969 edition of the book, and asserts that: * customary tenants enjoyed legal security in and before the sixteenth century * enclosures proceeded legally, without oppression, and in much the same form (whether ratified in parliament or not) throughout the whole period * depopulation was less extensive than sometimes supposed and that such depopulation as there was often proved economically profitable and not without social benefit. When first published in 1969, this fascinating book represented a unique viewpoint that affected, and in some cases reversed, much accepted opinion. As a landmark work in a highly important area of English agrarian history, it still has considerable impact today.
