They are both domestic and foreign. I am sure the reader can identify and prioritize this long list but I would like to focus on a critical issue identified by our 3rd President Thomas Jefferson's quote, \"All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.\" America needs an informed, educated, pro-active citizenry. A red-flashing warning signal is the abysmal voter turnout in our local, state and federal elections. As imperfect as we all are, including our elected politicians, an apathetic, non-participating citizenry is the greatest danger to the continued future and success of our Constitutional Republic. A collection of essays and commentary on the issues of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45540697964695,"sku":"9781717840653","price":925.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781717840653.webp?v=1767119494","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/speak-up-its-your-country-9781717840653","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
