Author Bio
Leah L. Burton, 51, is a former political lobbyist and multi-generational Alaskan, born in Ketchikan, and raised throughout the state. She is an avid researcher on the thirty year infestation of the Republican Party by religious zealots and a member of the New Apostolic Reformation Research Team. Burton studied Social Psychology at the University of Alaska and a partial list of her lobbying clients included The League of Women Voters, National Association of Social Workers and the Alaska Women's Lobby. As a lobbyist she drew acclaim from Alaska's Governors, First Lady and Legislators for her work on behalf of Alaska's families. She has extensive writing experience in the realm of persuasive informative pieces. She has been a guest on radio talk shows, co-hosted a statewide Public Television Welfare Reform Debate in Alaska, and a "go to" source for print journalists.
Burton's concern for a secular America certainly motivates her writings, particularly as a mother. The recent emergence of Alaska's Governor Sarah Palin, a Dominionist, onto the national political stage prompted this author to put pen to paper with a sense of urgency to expose their movement. Burton anticipates a ground surge of awareness by mainstream America that will generate significant discussion.
