Description

McLeod’s new book, The Death of Civility and Common Sense: How America Has Become Dangerously Polarized, was prompted by the current 2016 Presidential election which most consider the worst in American history. A look at history can give readers insight into how we got here and what the future may, or may not, hold.

Appointed Chief of Staff of a major Senate Committee by the age of 33, McLeod has extensive experience being active inside Congress and outside lobbying Congress. He worked in four Presidential campaigns, numerous Congressional campaigns and wrote several federal laws.

The Death of Civility and Common Sense takes readers through a personal account of modern history beginning with Eisenhower and ending with Obama. He also includes information about notable House Speakers and his personal role-models, Robert Byrd and Hubert Humphrey.
