It is my desire to rally the American citizenry around a common cause and inspire them to act on a noble and historic endeavor – that of rescuing our nation from moral, economic and political collapse. I believe that the majority of Americans, 80% of us in fact, whether Republican, Democrat or Independent would agree with 80% of the solutions to our national problems proposed in this book.

My Humble Plea to Each of You:

Do something different and maybe we can all make a difference! Don’t entertain the question, Can he or she win? until the day of the election. That way, the country gives every candidate a fair hearing instead of shooting down someone who may well be just the ticket we need.

What I’m Proposing

The Grim Nature of Our Situation Is

We are a nation that is gridlocked and befuddled by our decision making processes. We are told no one else can win, so we somehow end up voting for the following:

political parties that are more problematic than productive

voting procedures that diminish our voice in elections

the giving away of most of our industrial base to China

the pathetic positioning of the US as China’s colony

the emergence of fear-based policies
