3 books designed to save America

WASHINGTON – First came "Taking America Back," the best-seller some believe inspired the tea-party movement.

Then came "The 5000 Year Leap," a book extolled by Glenn Beck on the first principles.

Now comes "The Tea Party Manifesto," a book designed to bring it all together with a coherent vision for America's most dynamic grass-roots political movement in a century.

You can get this trio of books that together contain the blueprint for saving America separately for a price of $41.95. It would be a good deal.

Have you heard about "The 5000 Year Leap"?

It's one of the most important books on restoring America to its original principles, featured regularly and enthusiastically by Glenn Beck on his popular Fox News show.

The premise: The nation America's founders built is now in the throes of a political, economic, social and spiritual crisis that has driven many to an almost frantic search for modern solutions. The truth is that the solutions have been available for a long time – in the writings of this nation's Founding Fathers – and carefully set forth in this incredible book.

"The first thing you could do, please, is get 'The 5000 Year Leap,'" says Glenn Beck. "Over my book or anything else, get 'The 5000 Year Leap.' … It is the principle. It is so easy to read. It's the book Ronald Reagan wanted taught in high schools and Ted Kennedy stopped it from happening. That should tell you all you need to know. … When you read these principles, your mouth will fall open. … The scales will fall off your eyes on who we are. … It will help you understand American free enterprise. You'll be able to defend it. You'll be able to know what makes it possible for 6 percent of humanity living under our free economy to produce one-half of the Earth's developed wealth every single year."

In the book you will discover the 28 principles of freedom America's Founding Fathers said must be understood and perpetuated by every society that desires peace, prosperity and freedom. Learn how adherence to these beliefs during the past 200 years has brought about more progress than was made in the previous 5000 years.

This book describes the problems the Founding Fathers dealt with and how philosophies and ideals collided to form the United States of America. The skills and prosperity of the Jamestown settlers in 1607 greatly contrast those of society after the enactment of the United States Constitution.

Shortly after the Constitution was enacted, a free-enterprise system – an economy with little government influence that flourishes with competition of businesses – was established. It is because of this system that America became the most advanced and powerful country that world history has known.

After highlighting the importance of the nation’s foundation, Skousen covers in detail what went into the design of the Constitution. Surveying the original sources for the principles that inspired the United States, the author shows how the Founders developed these principles from the studies of Cicero, Locke, Montesquieu and Adam Smith.

Skousen also contrasts the affluence of the young United States with that of the present day, showing that it was because of the free-enterprise system that America produced such astounding inventions and ideas, from jet propulsion to the doubling of life expectancy. Within this narrative of success, Skousen weaves the story of America as a Christian nation, guided by divine providence and created for the liberty and rights of mankind.

This book also analyzes problems throughout history (such as national debt) that have come from failing to adhere to the Constitution.

"The 5000 Year Leap" gives the reader a greater understanding of the origins of the United States of America, the consequences of deviating from the principles on which it was founded and all the characteristics that have made this nation great. You can buy it individually for $19.95 – or you can get it free in a handsome combination of books that complement it for exactly the same price!

"These books really go hand in hand," explained Farah. "'Taking America Back' has sold nearly 100,000 copies already. It was indeed a radical call for just the kind of movement the tea party has become. It predicted it. It foresaw it. I like to think it had something to do with initiating it or inspiring it."

Tea-party books are all the rage in 2010. At least a dozen are planned for release in the second half of the year. But "The Tea Party Manifesto" is not only the first. It is also one of the very few positive portrayals of the movement. But it offers a lot more than cheerleading. It comes with a warning.

"I like to think it is a modest blueprint for the movement," Farah said. "Unlike other books that seek to restrain the movement from venturing away from economic, or what I call 'materialistic', issues, this book explains that it is an absolute must to do so if the movement is to be successful, effective and long-lasting."

Just as he did in "Taking America Back," Farah turns to the founding fathers for inspiration.

"The founders didn't limit their grievances or their vision to materialistic issues," he says. "They had a vision for something that had never before been achieved in the history of the world – an independent, self-governing nation with strict constraints on government, not the people. That vision is not obsolete today. But it requires a moral renewal, not just a political one."
