ISBN: 979-8-88722-910-2

The United States was founded in the late 18th century as the first republic, based on modern democratic rules. The texts of The Constitution and The Bill of Rights dominated the ruling of the country with separation of powers to legislature, executive, and judiciary.
What the Founding Fathers learned from the Greeks and Romans shaped this country. America created the model for modern democracy, which was later copied by countries around the world.
Today, we are struggling to maintain the democracy as it was designed and we are drifting into an erosion of those principles¬—and thus enabling and tolerating, inequality, poverty, helplessness, and mistrust. A distortion of our democracy is the covert voting restrictions and Gerrymandering, calling forth a hidden betrayal on the American people.
In this book, Neff reflects on history, politics, democratic theories, and principles in form of fictional dialogs allowing the Founding Fathers to express their theories on what truly makes America great. and what will provide the American people today with real freedom and prosperity for all. The author believes that democratic principles, and ethical and self-less leadership in service for the people are the pillars to justice, equality, and prosperity for all.
