Chris Gibson brings a lifetime of scholarship, study, and leadership to help us reset a nation at a crossroads on the philosophical underpinnings of America's constitutional founding.

BOOK OVERVIEW

This book proposes a return of the American government to the philosophical roots as articulated by the U.S. Constitution and its Framers. Grounded in realism, the Founders successfully balanced the needs and rights of the individual with those of the collective, creating a system that prioritized both personal liberty and societal order. Culminating with a comprehensive list of policy recommendations that logically analyze issues in the American political system, Chris Gibson proposes an agenda aimed at restoring faith and functionality in national institutions and leaders, fostering bipartisan communication and collaboration, and revitalizing civic engagement at the individual level.

Editorial Reviews

"Chris Gibson has issued a clarion call to all Americans — regardless of party or ideology — to participate in a much-needed reset of our struggling experiment in self-governance... Chris Gibson has provided us with a timely vehicle and a logical framework for such a national conversation."
– Lewis G. Irwin
Professor of Public Policy and American Government, Duquesne University; Major General, U.S. Army (retired)
"Chris Gibson — former Army Colonel, Iraq combat veteran, recipient of a Purple Heart and four Bronze Stars, Ph.D., three-term congressman, professor, and former college president — is singularly qualified to diagnose our current American malaise and offer time-honored remedies of compromise, nonpartisanship, and shared sacrifices that date back to our founding."
– Victor Davis Hanson
Senior Fellow, The Hoover Institution, Stanford University; Author of The Dying Citizen
