YouRule!

Are you astonished by America's one-of-a-kind system of self-governance, or would you just like to be? Do you believe our republic is under a grave threat, as polls say most Americans do? Enter YouRule! - How Saving America Depends Entirely on You And What You Can Do About It. It's a short, uplifting Owner's Manual for the American citizen, since you, in fact, run the United States of America. You do, indeed, rule. YouRule! describes in fun fashion how your country is supposed to run, what kind of shape it's in, how it got that way, and how you - and only you, as a sovereign citizen - can give it a desperately needed tune-up. YouRule! reveals the Five Pillars of Our Civic Infrastructure and the five tools needed to repair it: the five keys to running your own country! Let's face it: You own the best governance machine ever invented, but it's suffering from inexcusable neglect. When only 20-25% of high school students test proficient in U.S. history and civics, 37% of adults can't name even one of the five rights in the First Amendment, and 33% are unable to name the three branches of government, the American system of self-governance is up on blocks under a dusty tarp in a desolate garage. YouRule! can change that - perhaps by changing you. YouRule! will help you get excited about getting in the self-governance game, and give you concrete ideas on how to do it. The polls are right: The American republic is in great danger, mostly from our own ignorance and indifference. Here's the problem: 'Most of us don't understand the idea of self-government enough to be properly astonished by it,' as author Eric Metaxas writes. Here's the solution: YouRule! Get astonished! Get in the game!
