The Campus has been discovered. And whoever knows they exist knows they can be destroyed. Meanwhile, President Jack Ryan has been swept back into the Oval Office - and his wisdom and courage are needed more desperately than ever. Internal political and economic strife has pushed the leadership of China to the edge of disaster. And those who wish to consolidate their power are using the opportunity to strike at long-desired Taiwan, as well as the Americans who have protected the tiny nation.

Gone to Texas engagingly tells the story of the Lone Star State, from the arrival of humans in the Panhandle more than 10,000 years ago to the opening of the 21st Century. Focusing on the state's successive waves of immigrants, the audiobook offers an inclusive view of the vast array of Texans who, often in conflict with each other and always in a struggle with the land, created a history and an idea of Texas.

Three prominent Americans debate the merits of unchecked immigration, national security, and civil rights. While it sounds like a contemporary, made-for-TV event, this confrontation takes place in 1799, with three of America's Founding Fathers as participants: Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and Aaron Burr. Legendary radio dramatist Norman Corwin created this imagined discussion from the participants' actual writings - proving that when it comes to politics, some things never change.

Corwin was amazing. What I got from this was the same arguments were front and center with politicians in the 1830's as they are in the 2020's. We need statesmen and we have how ever many stooges there are in Washington on both sides of the aisle. But they have been there since 1776. And they were in London, Paris, Berlin, Rome, Tokyo, Moscow, Beijing ad infinitum before then. And probably will be forever.

Never is an extraordinary novel, full of heroines and villains, false prophets and elite warriors, jaded politicians and opportunistic revolutionaries. It brims with cautionary wisdom for our times, and delivers a visceral, heart-pounding story that transports listeners to the brink of the unimaginable.

Reviewed: 06-11-22
Norman Corwin was and is an American treasure. His words touch something deep within that brings out the best in those who listen without an agenda of their own. There is no one in the media today who approach his mastery of words. No one who wears his heart so openly for all to see. No one who can inspire.
This work is a great history lesson. I know far more about the building of the Statue of Liberty than I knew before even after visiting her many times.
But it awakened something in me about what she represents. Our "border crisis" is not the people trying to get here for a better life. That was what made the country. The crisis is the way those coming are being used by both sides for political gain. The problem is not along the Rio Grande River. The problem is along the Potomac River.
There was some consideration of placing Lady Liberty next to Washington, D.C. I swear she would have turned away from the place and started walking back to France years ago.

Using an international framework, Sowell analyzes how much a racial group’s economic fate is determined by the surrounding society and how much by internal patterns that follow that same group around the world.

You cannot understand today unless you study yesterday. If you listen to most of the media, it has never been as bad as it is today. Nonsense. The book details struggles by every race on every continent. Most overcame the problems they faced by hard work and initiative. So, instead of listening to the latest snake oil salesman they worked, saved, raised their children and did not wait for the next government handout.

When two of his American employees were held hostage in a heavily guarded prison fortress in Iran, one man took matters into his own hands: American businessman H. Ross Perot. His team consisted of a group of volunteers from the executive ranks of his corporation, hand-picked and trained by a retired Green Beret officer. To free the imprisoned Americans, they would face incalculable odds on a mission that only true heroes would have dared.

True Leadership
Reviewed: 03-02-22
They were his people. He was responsible. No straw polls. No focus groups. Every bump in the road was another chance to improvise. Find the right people. Give them the tools to do the job, Get it done. Be a man who gave his people total confidence in his ability to get it done whatever it happened to be.
In this case, it was yet another terrorist State that felt it could extort millions by kidnapping employees of a wealthy American company. They picked the wrong company from the wrong State led by a true leader.
Do you think that ex-KGB puppet would be pulling all this nonsense if a man such as Ross Perot was in the White House?
