Product Description
In my travels across the country, I have heard from citizens of all backgrounds who feel alienated from the Founders' idea that they are the ones who must lead; they are the ones who must decide and confront and draw a line. They are the ones who matter. This book is written for them. Such citizens need the keys to, the understanding of, the Founders' radical legacy. They need to understand how despots have gone about their work. They need a primer so they and those around them can be well-equipped for the fight that lies ahead.

 Must Read! October 6, 2008
This is a great book. Very informative, a little bit scary. I purchased extra copies to share with family & friends. This information must get out to everyone.

During the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln jailed war dissenters and suspended habeau corpus for American citizens. President Franklin Roosevelt incarcerated Japanese American citizens during World War II and even attempted to undermine - by "packing" - the Supreme Court of the United States. Yet, today's poltically-motivated critics of President Bush idolize both Lincoln and Roosevelt. Why the double standard?
What is truly laughable is the author's claim that President Bush "controls the press"! Is there anyone in modern American history who has been more demonized by the press than President Bush?!

Ms. Wolf's book was thought provoking. She addresses the devasting mistakes from the past by Germany and Italy, countries we severely criticized and punished, while warns the reader that we are seemingly doomed to replicate these same inhumane tatics in this country if we do not take action.
It was a very easy and comprehensive read. This book allows the reader great insight into the threats we are facing in this country regarding our rights and civil liberties being gradually dismantled. She reports the steps that are leading us down the slippery slope, and encourages us to take action. It was a very compelling read. I highly recommend this book to everyone, regardless of their political affiliation.

As a parent, as an activist, and as someone who is more than concerned with the way this country is heading, I felt this to be an important work to read; not only for myself, but for my children.
We are living in a time where, if you do NOT assimilate to the governmental belief that the Resident is right, and the Resident is good, and the Resident is doing what is best for this country, then you are a seditionist, a terrorist, and possibly even worse.
Please note the 'Resident' comment is intentional. He is not my President, nor is he ours.
We seem to be on the verge of 1984, where we have always been at war with Eurasia, and Emmanual Goldstein is your hidden enemy.
Think now...because right now, thinking is NOT a crime.
