AND THE WALLS CAME 'A TUMBLIN' DOWN.
Once upon a time, America was a great nation. She was truly great, the envy of the world. She was powerful, prosperous, and proud.
But, that was long ago.
Now to be sure, America is still blessed with vast reserves of wealth and honor, but there can be no doubt that decadent decline has set in. Poverty is rampant. The blight of immoral corruption has swept every corner. Bankruptcy, betrayal, and bitterness are epidemic. Abortion, adultery, and AIDS are pandemic. The once great walls of America's greatness have begun to crumble and fall.
But, the great wave of conservative enthusiasm that swept over the land in the 80's was supposed to arrest the decay and revive the glory! It didn't. Things are worse now than ever before. The deficits are higher. The morals are lower. The crime rate is greater. The school systems are weaker. The scandals are more glaring. And the aspira-tions grow ever more dim.
According to Peter Waldron, however, all is not lost. America's greatness can be restored. Those crumbling walls can be rebuilt.
This remarkable and provocative book shows us precisely how.
