Great course, as always from Danny S.! Danny can explain the most complex matters in amazingly simple terms. That\'s a gift!

PS - I am not a you-know-whater, but I respectfully disagree with the other gentleman re the comment. It was funny! And frankly can be read either way...

Good course. Well written. EXCEPT, The authors slam on \'Democrats at page 11-11 was pretty stupid, immature and not welcomed. You can do better than that. For that one dig, you get 4 stars.

The course is worth the time and effort.
