When Gareth Campesinos! sings “I can taste the blood on your lips and on your tongue / I can see your teeth turn pink / Your gums fade to white,” it is hard to believe that this band was originally labelled as twee.

For the former Arkansas governor, the gesture symbolized his remarkable campaign: a validation of the idea that anyone can be President, even a Baptist pastor with crooked teeth, no personal fortune but an amazing ability to communicate. His sixth book is part memoir and part political treatise, full of policy proposals, like a national sales tax, and harsh words for foes, including "left of center" Mitt Romney and the libertarian "faux-cons" of the Republican Party. But its emotional heart...
