Acknowledgments

What People are Saying About This

Rand Paul

President Obama has sought from Day One to bypass elected representatives in Congress and impose his liberal agenda by regulatory fiat. This unchecked regulatory assault is draining the lifeblood from our economy and eroding our liberties. Phil Kerpen's book is an excellent tool for anyone seeking to understand the consequences of regulatory tyranny and the story of the REINS Act—the most important reform that, if passed, will restore accountability and balance to the regulatory process. (U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky))

Mike Pence

The American people are the most innovative in the world, but they are being held back by the Obama administration's extreme regulatory agenda. Phil Kerpen cuts to the heart of this problem and shows us the path forward. (U.S. Representative Mike Pence (R-Indiana))

Dick Morris

Obama is on a mission — to conceal his socialist record behind a veil of moderation. Phil Kerpen pierces that veil and shows the Obama beneath. He has broken the Obama Code. (Dick Morris, Fox News contributor)

Erick Erickson

As an elected city official, I have seen firsthand how the federal regulatory racket hurts local governments, citizens, and businesses. Phil Kerpen does an excellent job exposing abuses and offering constructive solutions to rein in the autocracy of unelected regulators. (Erick Erickson, Editor of RedState.com)

Glenn Beck

Phil Kerpen offers both a warning and a lesson about a radical minority and its concerted efforts to control the lives and voices of all Americans. Democracy Denied is a literal guidebook on the progressive game plan—now it's up to us to heed the warning. (Glenn Beck, #1 New York Times bestselling author)

Jerry Doyle

The Obama Socialist juggernaut is attempting to ride roughshod over the will of the people, skirt existing laws, and sideswipe the Constitution. In Democracy Denied, Phil Kerpen masterfully articulates the challenges we face and, most importantly, provides common sense solutions and strategies you need to know. (Jerry Doyle, nationally syndicated radio host)

Michelle Malkin

You know Team Obama is up to no good, but you don't even know the half of it. Phil Kerpen takes you inside all the backrooms and back doors that these left-wing power-grabbers have used to subvert the will of the people — and trample the rule of law. Democracy Denied exposes you to the true size and scope of the Obama regulatory Leviathan. Kerpen's comprehensive research will make your blood boil and stir you to action. (Michelle Malkin, Fox News contributor and bestselling author of Culture of Corruption)

Stephen Moore

Federal regulations have the slippery tentacles of an octopus strangling businesses, families, and workers. Democracy Denied exposes the threats to economic freedom from Barack Obama's gang of unelected regulatory zealots. (Stephen Moore, senior economics writer and editorial board member at The Wall Street Journal

Mark Levin

This is a must-read for everyone who values our nation's bedrock principles. What Obama is trying to unilaterally impose on the American people is nothing short of regulatory tyranny. Phil Kerpen breaks down the Obama administration's regulatory onslaught and shows those of us who love the Constitution what we can do about it. (Mark Levin, conservative talk radio host and author of Liberty and Tyranny)

Jim DeMint

Democracy Denied demonstrates how President Obama is packing federal agencies with handpicked liberal activists who are rewarding campaign allies, punishing opponents, and pushing the failed Keynesian fiscal policies Americans rejected at the ballot box in 2010. Phil Kerpen's must-read book provides much-needed solutions to the unaccountable bureaucrats who seek to control what cars we drive, the foods we eat, and even the lights we use. (U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina))
