Book Description
An essential read for both progressives and conservatives, this ‘little red book’ challenges modern patriotism, calling for a return to the ideals on which our democracy was founded Over the course of a generation, patriotism in America has been hijacked by the right and abandoned by the left. But the principles and values of true patriotism—country above self, contribution above consumption, stewardship over exploitation, freedom with responsibility, purpose through sacrifice and service, pragmatism, a fair shot for all—are inherently progressive. Written in the pamphleteering style of Thomas Paine (Common Sense), The True Patriot challenges progressives to reclaim patriotism and spells out just how to do it. This powerful and timely “little red book” combines a manifesto, a ten-principle plan, a model speech, and a moral code. Throughout, it weaves between the words of the authors and excerpts from foundational American texts and speeches, as well as a parade of iconic American images.

Pages : 50
Book Description
We live in a country where patriotism is measured by the wittiness of your slogan. Hats with waving flag prints, t-shirts with the latest, greatest phrases. These patriotic displays have their place, but they are not enough. Our founding fathers taught a different kind of patriotism, a more substantial and active way of supporting our country. Were we not taught aBy the people, for the peoplea? In a nation of armchair patriots a real need has developed, a need for capable, willing, and impassioned Americans, educated and alert, ready to champion the causes of freedom and liberty. It is not about supporting or not supporting our government; it is more than that. It is about supporting our country, its principles and, most importantly, its constitution. Defending what our country is supposed to be according to the people who created it, the people who forged the great land we now live in. It is our duty as citizens to fight whatever forces may try and steal away our liberties, whether those forces are inside or outside of our borders. The need has arisen, a need of the people, a need for the true patriot. They that will answer the calla]it is time to rise!
