At the country’s 250th birthday with much in disarray and many angry, confused, and fearful, this book applies an engineering mindset to look at how the United States was designed to tie us together, and what it is that is tearing us apart.
It is intended for first time and infrequent voters, those who try to avoid politics as much as possible, and those awakening to the sense that something is not right in this country. The hope is that by creating an opportunity for each of us to understand why we believe what we do, we may each learn and modify our positions – or at least accept the validity of other points of view.
If successful, then the nation wins: not the talking heads on TV, not the influencers on social media who want to keep us angry rather than educate us with the whole truth, and not the politicians who no longer listen to us and act like they will never be held to account.
This book is especially written for:
Thoughtful, personal, insightful, intelligent yet accessible, and optimistic without being naive, this is a book our country needs right now.
Magnificently expressed and urgently needed by We the People. Every sentence is educational and supremely thought and action provoking.
