I didn't recognize his name at first, so I searched him on Amazon and found out he's the author of On Tyranny, and a host of other books, many of which sound quite interesting. Take a look:

He wasn't kidding when he told Marge he's been studying and writing about this stuff for a long time.

I would give anything to see the look on her face after he made that little speech. She always has an air of "All y'all don't know nuthin' compared to me, Marge the All-Knowing."
