    Here is a interesting read that I did last semester in my U.S. History class.  To Serve God and Wal-Mart:  The making of a Christian Free Enterprise will or will not change readers minds about shopping at the store.  However, this book is not just about Wal-Mart it explains the rise of the Republican Party.

  • Tammy Baldwin, the Democratic candidate in Wisconsin, won her race and became the first openly gay or lesbian person elected to the United States Senate.
  • The votes counted so far in Ohio show an extraordinarily close race, with President Obama only about 1,000 ballots ahead of Mitt Romney as of 11:50 p.m.
  • But the vast bulk of precincts that have yet to report their results in Ohio are in counties that have gone for Mr. Obama.

  • Between 1940 and 1973, six American presidents from both political parties—Franklin Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, and Nixon—secretly recorded on tape just under 5,000 hours of their meetings and telephone conversations. The Miller Center’s Presidential Recordings Program is a unique effort aimed at making these remarkable historical sources accessible.
