Synopsis



Senator Rand Paul, leading national politician and 2016 Presidential candidate, presents his vision for America.
From his electrifying thirteen-hour filibuster against administration-orchestrated drone strikes against U.S. citizens, to leading the discourse on criminal justice, Senator Rand Paul has taken Washington by storm. His outreach to this country's minority communities alone- championing reforms of mandatory minimum sentencing, school choice, and the creation of enterprise zones for economically depressed areas- distinguishes him as a politician and Republican the likes of which are rarely seen.

What lies ahead is Senator Paul's plan for America, where lower taxes and smaller government empower a muscular and expansive middle class; an America that doesn't engage in nation-building or fight wars where the best outcome is stalemate; an America that believes in constitutionally protected liberty and the separation of powers.

Goodreads review by Kevin

This was a very good book. While it is a little self-serving (I guess it has to be if the guy is/was running for president, he really addresses many current issues in reasonable ways. It was very readable and pointed out a number of problems in government that need fixing. I'd like to see him attack......more

Goodreads review by Ray

Rand Paul is running for President, and like many other Candidates, releasing a book at the beginning of the Campaign is a good way to get his messages out and to introduce himself to the voters. ​I'd estimate the content of the book as being about one-half lambasting Democrats, Obama, and Democrati......more
