"If you believe it's time to put principles above parties,
character above campaign promises, and Common Sense above
all -- then I ask you to read this book...."
In any era, great Americans inspire us to reach our full
potential. They know with conviction what they believe
within themselves. They understand that all actions have
consequences. And they find commonsense solutions to the
nation's problems.
One such American, Thomas Paine, was an ordinary man who
changed the course of history by penning Common Sense, the
concise 1776 masterpiece in which, through extraordinarily
straightforward and indisputable arguments, he encouraged
his fellow citizens to take control of America's future --
and, ultimately, her freedom.
Nearly two and a half centuries later, those very freedoms
once again hang in the balance. And now, Glenn Beck
revisits Paine's powerful treatise with one purpose: to
galvanize Americans to see past government's easy
solutions, two-part monopoly, and illogical methods and
take back our great country.
