''In Sinclair Lewis's 1935 novel "It Can't Happen Here," a
conservative southern politician is helped to the presidency by a
nationally syndicated radio talk show host. The politician - Buzz
Windrip - runs his campaign on family values, the flag, and
patriotism. Windrip and the talk show host portray advocates of
traditional American democracy as anti-American. When Windrip becomes
President, he opens a Guantanamo-style detention center, and the
viewpoint character of the book, Vermont newspaper editor Doremus
Jessup, flees to Canada to avoid prosecution under new "patriotic"
laws that make it illegal to criticize the President. ''
