Description

Dear Reader, 

In February 2013 I gave a speech at the National Prayer Breakfast. Standing a few feet from President Obama, I warned my fellow citizens of the dangers facing our country and called for a return to the principles that made America great.


Many Americans heard and responded, but our nation’s decline has continued. Today the danger is greater than ever before, and I have never shared a more urgent message than I do now.

Our growing debt and deteriorating morals have driven us far from the founders’ intent. We’ve made very little progress in basic education. Obamacare threatens our health, liberty, and financial future. Media elitism and political correctness are out of control.

Worst of all, we seem to have lost our ability to discuss important issues calmly and respectfully regardless of party affiliation or other differences. As a doctor rather than a politician, I care about what works, not whether someone has an (R) or a (D) after his or her name. We have to come together to solve our problems.

Knowing that the future of my grandchildren is in jeopardy because of reckless spending, godless government, and mean-spirited attempts to silence critics left me no choice but to write this book. I have endeavored to propose a road out of our decline, appealing to every American’s decency and common sense.

If each of us sits back and expects someone else to take action, it will soon be too late. But with your help, I firmly believe that America may once again be “one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

Sincerely,

Ben Carson

    An inspired book by a noble man who is destined to save our constitution and with the backing of the people of the United States of America return us to the intended freedoms of the great men who authored the constitution.

    A brave and courageous treatise on freedom and liberty in America! Ben Carson has wisdom and a great vision for the greatest country of all time. Beware of those who would destroy what so many have sacrificed and died for. This book should be a textbook for middle schools and high schools and colleges throughout the land! Dr Carson would be a great leader and possibly a great president for this nation!

    The title says it all. Of course it is biased (why do people get shocked by that, it's written by a man with conservative biblical views) But if you take the time to read and understand you can see the points and solutions he gives. And I must say, he gives incredible points to unnecessary problems.
  • Excellent.

    Wonderful book, highly recommend. The people who dislike this book are either persons with racial hatred, or persons who are so politically biased and will attack anyone who doesn't say that Obama is the best president America has ever had.
  • Great Book!

    This is the third book I've read by Dr. Carson. I've read "Think Big", "America the Beautiful", and "One Nation", they were all great books!
  • High expectations not delivered

    I saw the good doctor on CNN and bought the book. I just do not "get it" about all the religion and slamming people who are not religious. History has shown time and again ethics and morality come from good parenting, peers, and just plain knowing right from wrong. Also, I think the good doctor should re-read the constitution and books on the founding fathers. There was a reason they made America a secular country! Very disappointing read from such a learned person. His discussion on education was interesting. It would be great if the culture in public education in large cities made going to school a safe rewarding experience. It was wonderful that the author was successful but unfortunately the majority of inner city children will not be so lucky.
  • Why all the Racism?

    why are so many people angered so deeply by Dr. Carson? it really makes no sense some of the name calling in these "reviews". it is horribly offensive.

    Very brilliant writing. Dr. Ben Carson speaks from his heart. Enjoyed the book immensely. My spirit was uplifted from reading about this faith filled, GOD fearing individual. Dr. Ben Carson's mother loved her family and wanted only the best for them, and the best is what was accomplished. GOD BLESS AMERICA
