    About this ebook

    The Prodigal Republican chronicles the historic relationship between blacks, Democrats, and Republicans. It is based on three topics: voting your values, family leadership, and Christian faith, all geared toward strengthening the American family generally and the black family in particular.

    The Prodigal Republican encourages everyone to return to core values by being self-reliant and realizing that government aid is never a pathway to prosperity; by promoting the sanctity of human life; and by favoring traditional marriage to perpetuate humanity.

    The Prodigal Republican is a guide to strengthen the family through a common-sense approach by avoiding teen pregnancy before marriage, graduating from high school and university or trade school, considering marriage, and having a work ethic.

    The Prodigal Republican makes a case for Christians to actively engage in the political process. Christians are called to engage in the political process in order to elect godly leaders and to consequently impact the community with their Judeo-Christian values.

    Author

    Marc T. Little

    More than twenty years ago, Marc T. Little said “yes” to life after a gang member tried to end it; instead, the gunshot took his right leg, propelling him to destiny. Now through his work as a lawyer, entrepreneur, community builder, and church administrator for more than a decade, he teaches others how to say “yes” to life. Little earned his Bachelor of Arts in broadcast journalism from the University of Southern California in 1987 and his Juris Doctorate from the Gould School of Law at USC in 1994. His own firm specializes in entertainment transactions. His pursuit of higher education continues at Fuller Seminary. Little also works on various boards and commissions focusing on family preservation and poverty. Little is a founding board member for Crown Preparatory Academy, a Los Angeles inner city-based charter middle school. Son of a single mother and Pro Football Hall of Famer Floyd Little, Marc desires to make a positive difference in his community; he is unwilling to allow anyone else to dictate his destiny. He believes that by doing so, he motivates himself and others to say “yes” to life.

      This book is a partisan screed. The author makes claims of fact that are false. His reasoning is faulty. He doesn’t understand the history he cites, the economics on which he relies, or the psychology of work. If the prospective reader wants to engage with an evangelical libertarian whose views represent the views of the that group, this book is a decent place to start.

      I don’t recommend it as a deeply thoughtful expression of libertarianism as it might manifest in the this century. I do recommend it if you want get a picture of how everyday conservatives think.
