Jonathon Braxton: Political Fiction (unfortunately)

In spring of 2012 an unlikely transformational figure, by way of chance occurrences, inadvertently breaches the perimeter of the U.S. political world.

Jonathon Braxton has just crossed his 40th birthday and has captured the American dream. He is surrounded by a loving family, adoring employees and local business and civic leaders grateful for his generosity and creative approaches to solving local community problems.

His accomplishments, accompanied by his astute business acumen, common sense, philanthropy, sense of humor, total transparency and unmistakable wit, bring him onto the radar of influential political operatives and his local Congressman.

They see in 'JB' the fresh face sorely needed in the 2012 Republican Party, and attempt to recruit him. But he is completely uninterested and apathetic to their efforts until a couple of happenstance events change his thinking and serve to change the U.S. political landscape in ways no one could have predicted.

Unencumbered by political ambition, devoid of greed, without lust for power, and fueled solely by a desire to advocate for a cure to a disease afflicting his son, Jonathon Braxton reluctantly enters the arena to pursue his single-purpose agenda. And it's not a fair fight as the enigmatic JB, over the course of four years, brings his own way of operating to DC. And proceeds to lay hilarious waste to Cable TV news, Congress and Washington DC political norms, while escorting both the Republican and Democrat parties to the brink of extinction.

"It was the summer of 2012 and Type 1 diabetes had no cure --- but it not yet faced off with Jonathon Braxton."

The timeline is 2012-2016 and the setting is the road from Southern California to the swamp in Washington DC. The travelers are Jonathon Braxton and a cast of characters that range from JB's hilarious executive assistant, Abby Martin, to the enlightened Pastor Jeffrey Claymore, to the two most influential Republican Party power brokers, the prestigious Carlton and Cornelius (Corny) Hale.

Along the way JB befriends the most powerful woman is U.S. politics, the former first lady, Democrat Heather Carrington. And their paths cross as the story builds to a surprise ending.

The story of Jonathon Braxton is a serious, yet often lighthearted story of hope and inspiration for both the cure for Type 1 diabetes and for the promise of better governance and public policy.
