Brief de Design de Couverture de Livre

This book tries to sound the ALARM that we will lose our democracy unless we force Democrats to adopt the plan inside this book. I designed a mock cover (attached) but I am concerned it would not look good in the Thumbnail view that most people would see it as they're scrolling down Amazon or Goodreads. The final title for the book is: Last Chance to Save American Democracy. The current subtitle is: The Only Plan to Stop the 2022 Republican Coup & Revive Our Nation -- but it’s a work in progress.The subtitle is still working progress but it's really not that important and can be small.
STYLE CONSIDERATIONS:
(1) The title should be on 5 separate lines: Last; Chance; To Save; American; Democracy
(2) The title could be in white fat letters except for maybe one line that says “To Save” which could be in the blue color of the Democratic Party-- or maybe American democracy could be in blue. We may have to try a few variations of that.
(3) I picked the red in the mock cover to connotate an emergency,
(4) I liked big bold fat font going across the full page so that it looks like a major warning sign, though note I was unable to extend each line flush all the way to the right which I think would have been better.
(5) I liked it better flush to left instead of centered.
(6) I picked the Lincoln memorial + a crowd for my mock cover, but a picture of a huge crowd protesting with a picture of the United States Congress in the background would be much better. DO NOT USE LINCOLN. Obviously I would need it to be an open license or something I can pay a small amount to get. If you can find that picture then the page should probably be colored in red with Congress in white.
I got the idea 4 giant title from the book “never a lovely so real” and Runciamn’s “How Democracy Ends” or “Black Swans” by Eve Babitz though I hate that font)
I love Ibram Kendi’s “stamped from the beginning” cover so if you find a picture of Congress and a protest crowd instead of painting it red you could have just a couple of jagged red stripes going across it like that cover.
I love the 3-D effect of Donna tartt's cover for The Goldfinch where it looks like a page is being ripped. That effect could be done the words American democracy like it's being torn off the page UPDATE: MANY DESIGNERS TRIED THAT & IT DID NOT WORK AT ALL.
Note that this book will be submitted to many award competitions, so please give me an award-winning cover.
I like how the title of the book The Unelected by James Copeland has the words starting to fade. I don't like the ladder on it, but maybe 'American democracy' could fade like that.
