    Summary: 
    Since its inception in the early nineteenth century, the Democratic Party has played a central role in defining American society, whether it was exercising power or contesting it. Kazin identifies and assesses the party's long-running commitment to creating "moral capitalism"-- a system that mixed entrepreneurial freedom with the welfare of workers and consumers. While the party championed the rights of the white working man, they also vigorously protected or advanced the causes of slavery, segregation, and Indian removal. Kazin traces the party's fortunes through vivid character sketches of its key thinkers and doers, and explores the records of presidents from Andrew Jackson to Barack Obama-- and outlines the core components of a political endeavor that may allow President Biden and his co-partisans to renew the American experiment. -- adapted from jacket and Amazon info
