THE COMMON MAN - A Lesson Book On Life
Want Truth?
"THE COMMON MAN®"
They say that truth is stranger than fiction. I would have to agree. You can't make this stuff up.
In my memoir spanning six decades, THE COMMON MAN, which is really two books in one, I intricately weave God, Home and Country together in a fascinating journey through life that will leave you breathless, yet wanting more.
The first section, God & Home, talks about my coming home from the Vietnam War disillusioned, using drugs and groping for meaning in life. Graduating from college with the double majors of political science and philosophy, I set out determined to find truth at any cost.
After the successive deaths of a good friend, father, brother and newborn son I accepted Christ. That was the easy part. Job losses and business setbacks led me to seek a deeper relationship with God. Reading the Bible through in its entirety year after year (now more than 30 times), I compared it to the Koran. Expecting that they mesh in some fashion, instead I found they go together like oil and water. (This chapter is a must read.)
Reconnecting to my political roots, the second section God & Country, is about joining the Tea Party movement. Our world is spinning out of control with leaders that don't know what to do and taking us right over a cliff: TARP, Stimulus, Bailouts, Government Motors, Cash for Clunkers, Medicare/Social Security, Obamacare, Wasteful Spending, National Debt and No Jobs.We need a spiritual, political and economic revival. It's not a secret. Everyone knows it.
Like a growing number of citizens, I became concerned with the recent events unfolding in Washington and ran for U.S. Congress in 2010 on the U.S. Taxpayers Party of Michigan (Michigan's affiliate of the national Constitution Party) ticket coming in third place behind Fred Upton (R) and Don Cooney (D). I found voters stuck in the filters of liberal, conservative, Republican and Democrat.
And in my run for Congress was shocked to discover how far our Constitutional Republic has strayed from the basic precepts laid out by the Founding Fathers. Our politicians have screwed up just about everything. During that period I spent 2,000 hours looking for, and finding, answers. My new book THE COMMON MAN® will challenge you to get a fresh perspective on The American Way of doing things.
This nation is truly at the crossroads of its life. The foundations are being destroyed. Just complaining is unhelpful. In THE COMMON MAN I explain complicated issues in a manner that everyone can understand. I guarantee you will learn things you did not know and that you will enjoy sharing them with your family, friends and neighbors.
This really is a great book and may be the most enjoyable, informative and refreshing book you read this year. Click here or on the book cover above to visit the one and only BumblebeeStore.com and get your copy today.

Ben Franklin said, “It therefore astonishes me, Sir, to find this system approaching so near to perfection as it does; and I think it will astonish our enemies, who are waiting with confidence to hear that our councils are confounded like those of the Builders of Babel.”
