“The Constitution is not the problem.
It is emphatically the answer.”
— Shane F. Krauser
About this book
This book offers a clear, line-by-line explanation of the U.S. Constitution, helping you understand its original intent, language, and structure—along with where and how it has been changed over time. Your Nation to Save will sharpen the way you read the Constitution and make its meaning easier to grasp in plain terms. As you work through it, one conclusion becomes hard to miss: the Constitution isn’t the problem—it’s emphatically the answer. And many of our nation’s challenges can be addressed by returning to the Constitution’s text, intent, and purpose.
The US Constitution is the oldest living constitution in the world and is a model to all nations who long for a free society. Americans are privileged to live under such a document—a document that now needs defending, as freedom is threatened by apathy, disregard, and the rampant abuse of power. When we fail to understand the Constitution, we fail in our responsibility as citizens. As Thomas Jefferson emphasized, no society can remain “ignorant and free.” Freedom can only be preserved by a people who understand what freedom is and how it can be defended.
America must rise up and again recognize that freedom is worth fighting for, and it is ours to keep only if we are willing to engage in the struggle to protect it. There is no better document to learn of liberty’s proper preservation than the Constitution, and Your Nation to Save examines the Constitution line by line. By reading this book, you will understand the Constitution in profound ways that most Americans—and politicians—fail to understand. This is where the invigorating journey to preserving freedom begins, and, without question, this is where people like Washington, Madison, and Jefferson would expect us to return.
