With a simple majority on the Supreme Court, the left would have the power to curtail or even abolish the freedoms that have made America a beacon to the world. We are one vote away from losing our most precious constitutional rights. As a Supreme Court clerk, solicitor general of Texas, and private litigator, Ted Cruz played a key role in some of the most important legal cases of the past two decades. In One Vote Away, you will discover how often the high court decisions that affect your life have been decided by the narrowest of margins. One vote preserves your right to speak freely, to bear arms, and to exercise your faith. One vote will determine whether your children enjoy their full inheritance as American citizens. God may endow us with "certain unalienable rights," but whether we enjoy them depends on nine judges--the "high priests" who have the last say in our system of government. Drawing back the curtain of their temple, Senator Cruz reveals the struggles, arguments, and strife that have shaped the fate of those rights. No one who reads One Vote Away can ever again take a single seat on the Supreme Court for granted.Senator Ted Cruz has dedicated his life to upholding the principles enshrined in our Constitution. After graduating from Harvard Law School, he clerked for Judge J. Michael Luttig of the Fourth Circuit and Chief Justice William Rehnquist of the U.S. Supreme Court. He served as an associate deputy attorney general under President George W. Bush and later as solicitor general of Texas, arguing nine cases before the Supreme Court. Elected to the Senate in 2012, he is a member of the Judiciary Committee. His previous book is One Vote Away: How a Single Supreme Court Seat Can Change History.
