Have you been disheartened over the last few years at how the foundation of our nation, the US Constitution, has been usurped, and felt that all is lost?
The election of Obama, the ramming of ObamaCare down the throat of America, the GOP good-old boy establishment ramming supposedly “electable” candidates who are afraid to stand for conservatism, and the Supreme Court that either actively legislates laws from the bench or throws out the will of the voters in state proposition ballots. The Oath of Office to protect and defend the Constitution seems to be “just words” instead of a sacred pledge by too many who serve.
In his upcoming book to come out August 13th, The Liberty Amendments: Restoring the American Republic, best-selling author and radio talk show host Mark Levin gives new hope to those of us who believe in the founding principles of our nation, that those principles can be restored regardless of a Congress or Supreme Court.

For a century, the Statists have steadfastly constructed a federal Leviathan, distorting and evading our constitutional system in pursuit of an all-powerful, ubiquitous central government. The result is an ongoing and growing assault on individual liberty, state sovereignty, and the social compact. Levin argues that if we cherish our American heritage, it is time to embrace a constitutional revival.
The delegates to the 1787 Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia and the delegates to each state’s ratification convention foresaw a time when—despite their best efforts to forestall it—the Federal government might breach the Constitution’s limits and become oppressive. Agencies such as the IRS and EPA and programs such as Obamacare demonstrate that the Framers’ fear was prescient.
Levin argues that the Framers provided a method in the Constitution for addressing our current circumstances – which, he insists, must be resuscitated – and lays forth specific prescriptions for restoring the American republic. The answers, Levin insists, are not found in Congress, the Supreme Court, or the presidency.
This is a historic and compelling book, like few before it. Levin turns to the Constitution to save the Constitution and the nation’s future. Levin declares that we, the people, have the power to reestablish constitutional republicanism, protect individual and state sovereignty, and reverse the centralization and concentration of power in the hands of governing masterminds and a massive bureaucracy. Levin explains that our demise is not inevitable if we rally to reclaim our heritage and follow the Framers’ guidance.
