This book and its content hopefully will create a fire in the believers of the "little guy" or the "common people" of America. The modern day politician and the Washington Bureaucracy have abused their powers, the "Constitution" and the Bill of Rights" and it's time we the people of America take back our government. Enough is enough and we the people should get rid of ALL politicians who dis-assemble or ignore our "Constitution" and replace them with people who want to work "for" us. We do not care about Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Libertarians or any political party. We want "Patriotic Americans" who want to properly represent us and honor our "Constitution". We want all you dishonest, greedy and self-serving politicians to take a hike and stop running this country. We want less government in our lives at both the "Local" and "Federal" level and most of all stop trying to control our freedoms, beliefs and values. This is the "people's Country" and all you politicians should take note and remember that. Your position in government is to "serve" not control.
