WASHINGTON – Way back in 2003, WND Editor-founder Joseph Farah had a big idea, a radical idea – writing a blueprint for “Taking America Back,” not backward, but to a future that would not be a betrayal of the unique notion of self-government envisioned by the country’s founders.
By Farah’s own admission, however, the book was a flop.
“I attributed the lack of response to ‘Taking America Back: A Radical Plan to Revive Freedom, Morality and Justice,’ to the outbreak of the Iraq war, which coincided with its release,” Farah said. “But, when the book was released in paperback a few years later, it didn’t do much better.”
However, says Farah, with the election of Barack Obama as the next president, the book has finally struck a chord and is selling faster than ever before.
“I think Americans today are finally looking at the deeper issues facing them squarely in the eye,” said Farah. “Many Republicans weren’t willing to accept radical prescriptions as long as George W. Bush was in the White House. Now, as they look into a future in which Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid are setting the agenda in Washington, they are more willing than ever to adopt radical tactics and strategies.”
And that’s what Farah offers.
This is not a book about taking back the Republican Party. This is a book that lays out radical – even revolutionary – ideas. For instance, it discusses the need to consider a second declaration of independence and a movement toward secession from what Farah now terms “The Obama Nation.”
Now, Farah says, as Obama prepares to lead the country in a direction he warned about five years ago, Americans are embracing the answers he offers in “Taking America Back.”
“We’re still headed down the same road we were headed down in 2003 and 2005,” Farah explains. “It’s just that we’re going to be traveling at 90 miles per hour instead of 50 mph.”
Despite Farah’s belief that Obama is the most unqualified and most radical man ever to be elected president, he also says he may wind up being the best thing that has happened to the country since Ronald Reagan.
“America needed a wakeup call or we were just going to keep heading toward tyranny – slowly, but surely,” he says. “Obama has put a good percentage of Americans on alert. He has opened their minds to the possibility that we are truly losing our freedom, losing our country. His election can be a turning point for liberty in this country – not because he is good, mind you, but because he is so bad.”
“Taking America Back” includes an unpredictable 12-point program for re-establishing the kind of constitutionally limited government prescribed by America’s founders.
“One of the central messages of my book is that taking our country back is not a mission for some future political messiah,” says Farah. “It’s a mission for every single American citizen who believes in the Bible and the Constitution. It is also not a matter of building coalitions that equal 50 percent of the populace. I believe we can take this country back with only a small percentage of Americans following my prescription for radical self-government.”
Do you want to find out why conservatism is fighting a losing battle and can never advance its own agenda?
Do you want to find out how political victory is achieved without majority support?
Do you want to find out how to transform the way Americans think about the issues of the day, so that future generations will embrace the ideals of self-government and liberty just as previous generations did?
The answers are all in “Taking America Back: A Radical Plan to Revive Freedom, Morality and Justice” – a book that has finally found its time.
“This book is not for everyone,” explains Farah. “It’s only for people who revere God’s laws as revealed in the Bible and others who truly yearn for real liberty.”
