Here are a few of the amazing stories we discovered: • The forgotten role of the killer and traitor Aaron Burr in founding the Democratic Party and turning a New York social club into the most powerful and enduring political machine in American history, Tammany Hall. • How gangsters wielded influence over the Democratic Party for much of the twentieth century, helping to elect three of the past six Democratic presidents. • The brazen corruption of big-city Democrats-from Chicago to Atlanta to Philadelphia to New Orleans to Detroit-who preside over empires of graft and fraud while their policies bring nightmares of crime and squalor to the inner-city poor who are among the Democratic Party's most loyal supporters. • That Democrats have, since the party's founding, routinely used election fraud to win -- and continue to do so today. But Donkey Cons is more than a laundry list of Democratic scandals. Inside you will four essential points: 1) The Democratic Party has a 200-year history of urban corruption, treason and subversion, mob control, alliance with corrupt unions, and aiding and abetting criminals, that has no parallel in the GOP. 2) Corruption is as old as politics and it will always be present in both parties. But when corruption occurs in its ranks, Republicans generally clean house. Democrats, on the other hand, cover up. 3) Over the past 30 years in Congress, there have been three times as many Democratic crooks as Republican ones. (We took the trouble to actually count and it's all documented in more than 650 end notes.) 4) There is a media double-standard for covering Republican and Democratic scandal, which results in the false impression that both parties are equally corrupt.
