Description
"AN AMERICAN IS NOT ONLY THE INDIVIDUAL WHO MAY FIND ON THESE SHORES A COMPANION IN PROVIDENTIAL IDEALS HOWEVER, IT IS TRULY AND ONLY THESE PROVIDENTIAL IDEALS THAT DEFINE AN AMERICAN! IT IS A PULSE THAT RESONATES WITH THE RHYTHM OF TRUTH IN PEOPLE OF ALL NATIONS WHOSE HEARTS BEAT WITH THE CADENCE OF BUT ONE WORD! FREEDOM! IT IS THEN NOT ONLY FOR THIS UNION TO CHAMPION SO NOBLE A CAUSE BUT FOR ALL TO ASSERT AND ASCEND TO THE IDEAL OF FREEDOM, LIBERTY AND JUSTICE! BY DOING SO, WE BANISH TYRANNY, IN ALL ITS FORMS, TO THE REGIME OF FAILURE!" CURTIS GRECO draws on the wisdom of his favorite historical figures, including, of course, Thomas Jefferson. But, at this critical point in our national history, his emphasis is less on perfecting those ideals than on protecting them; or, even more bluntly, keeping them from being actively undermined. Greco's concern that our present political and economic course is leading our nation and its people away from its founding principles will resonate with anyone who loves this country and wants to restore its promise. Foreword by Austin Hill, Columnist, Talk Show Host, Author, The Virtues of Capitalism: A Moral Case For Free Markets

Reviews
"Democracy and professional sports have one big thing in common: At the end of the day, sniping at your opponent is not the same as being the best and winning the game. Nobody does a better job than Curtis Greco of illustrating the power and beauty of democracy, and showing readers how living and thriving in a democracy is a team sport that involves playing the game instead of sitting back and doing all that partisan sniping that's tearing our country apart. America's one team, and Curtis Greco makes a great coach." -Pat Williams, Senior Vice President, Orlando Magic, Author of Nail It! & Daly Wisdom
"Greco is the megaphone from which our founding fathers are screaming 'please stop this madness'. We have fumbled, bumbled, and stumbled off the path that they struggled to secure. The scary truth is that the attack on human freedoms is no longer a frontal assault, but a peripheral anesthetic experience in which we are both the criminal and the victim. Greco's words awaken us to the fact that with every ambivalent shrug of our shoulders (and with every free hand-out from the government) the noose tightens around our neck and removes a cornerstone from our true personal and collective purpose. Greco's book captures a truth that would have to seem surreal to the likes of Thomas Jefferson and abhoretion to Benjamin Franklin. Finally, as we are exhausted from the reality of Greco's words, he provides us with good news!!! TODAY, Only in America could the ceiling on any one person's greatness be his or her willingness to work harder and smarter. We will have to "engage" with our mind and spirit to keep it possible for us to 'have life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness'. Everyone American should read this book!" -TODD ZAUGG Principal and Founder, Matrix Achievement Group, LLC, Author, Warrior Sales Monk
