At the end of the Constitutional Convention, Ben Franklin was asked by a woman what sort of government the delegates had provided. His answer was "A Republic: If you can keep it". That is a simple, yet profound statement. America has been a successful republic for over two hundred years. Yet, beginning with the New Deal, of Franklin Delano Rosevelt, we have gradually lost the truth of what it means to be a republic. Gradually, and mainly with the work of the Democrats, we have become a collectivist society; we have gradually become, not a republic, but a socialist country, with bigger government and a tendency to government tyranny. Now we are at a crossroads. This next election may well determine if we will remain a constitutional republic or fall down into being no more than a third world banana republic. It is time to retake control of our government, which is a servant of the people, not a master. We need to control our government on the national level; Congress, the President, the Supreme Court. But we also need to take control on the local level; schools, libraries, city councils and county and state governments. It is not too late, but the time is moving quickly. This book explains much of the problem and provides some hope as to how to overcome it. America has been a great nation and can be great again.
