Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK On April 10, 2012, when Rick Santorum announced he was stepping out of the race to become the Republican candidate for President of the United States, he answered a question many have been asking for a several months now: when is this guy gonna just give up? But although his bid for the presidency may have never stood a chance (he was being outspent by Romney on a margin of 10-1), he made it longer and further than anyone ever predicted, and played an interesting and significant role in the shaping of the coming national election. The primary elections unfolded this year in an unusual pattern. Though it began with a sense of inevitability that Mitt Romney, Santorums multi-multi-multi-millionaire rival, would win the nomination, each candidate had his or her fifteen minutes in the frontrunner position. Yet with each possible Romney alternative, closer inspection always revealed some deal breaking discoveries. Herman Cain was alleged to be a repeat sexual harasser, questions about Rick Perrys intelligence kept surfacing, and Michele Bachmann continued making unsupported statements about the HPV vaccine causing mental retardation. MEET THE AUTHOR Deena Shanker is a writer living in San Francisco. After moving to the west coast from New York City in the fall, she is loving San Fran's beautiful weather, colorful architecture, and never-ending vegetarian food options. She loves visiting the beach with her dog, Barley, and eating cheese (also sometimes with Barley). She is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania Law School and Barnard College. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Though to many Americans, the economy is the most important challenge facing our country, Santorum did not focus on it much on the campaign trail. On March 19, Politico noted that on the economy, Rick Santorum these days has very little to say. His focus had shifted to what he called a campaign for freedom. He even stated I dont care what the unemployment rates going to be...My campaign doesnt hinge on unemployment rates and growth rates. Its something more foundational going on. Yet according to Santorums campaign website, he does have an economic plan. Dubbed Made In America, it is based on the recognition that to have a strong national economy, we must have strong families... His vision for American is to restore Americas greatness through the promotion of faith, family and freedom. Beyond these platitudes, Santorum provides a number of specific plans including eliminating the estate tax (what Republicans have named the Death Tax), cutting the corporate income tax rate in half, from 35% to 17.5%, and getting rid of all Obama era regulations with economic impact over $100 million.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rick Santorum is a conservative committed to restoring the American dream for hardworking Americans. The runner-up for the Republican nomination for president in 2012 is running again and building grass-roots support. In this collection of columns from 2013, the former senator from Pennsylvania explains in his own words what he stands for and what his vision for America's future is. In 2012, Rick launched Patriot Voices, a community of Americans committed to promoting faith, family, freedom and opportunity. And he has taken that message to the campaign trail, where he is a voice for the voiceless. A fierce defender of the unborn, Rick believes that strong families help produce a strong economy. He believes that renewing our country’s manufacturing spirit would strengthen working families and help our struggling communities return to a path of prosperity during these tough economic times. "We must not be the party of plutocrats, country clubbers and corporate interests," Rick writes. "We must focus on ways to deliver our vision for hope and opportunity for working Americans."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States of America was founded and established by ordinary citizens just like you and me. In their struggle for independence, these heroic men and women willingly shed their blood, sweat, and tears—often sacrificing their own lives and fortunes in order to hand down the precious legacy of freedom we all enjoy today. Now is the time for a new generation of American patriots to rise up and join in the fight. Now is the time for every American to return to the virtues, values, and ideals that formed our foundation of freedom, and enable America to remain a great nation, a powerful democracy, and a beacon of hope for the world. American Patriots highlights the heroic men and women who valiantly fought to secure our God-given rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness—not only for themselves and their children, but for countless future generations. Their stories are a true reminder of the extraordinary faith, courage, and determination that set this country on the path to greatness centuries ago, and an inspiration for future generations of great American patriots.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Donald Trump successfully mobilized millions of blue collar Americans with his campaign to reclaim America, Rick Santorum was trying to convince his fellow Republicans that it was time to return to the party’s original values: the values of “blue collar conservatives.” In this powerful book that helped inspire President-Elect Trump’s winning message to voters, Santorum calls out Republican establishment leaders for pandering to business owners at the expense of everyone else. Republicans need to regain the trust of the hard-working members of every family, church, and community across America whose most immediate problems are lack of jobs and opportunity. No more pandering. No more ignoring those left behind by globalization. No more broken promises to the frustrated middle class. We're entering a brand new era of conservative politics—and Rick Santorum's Blue Collar Conservatives shows us the way forward.

Book excerpt: Rick Santorum made his name in the 2012 presidential race with his principled conservatism. To understand Santorum’s worldview and vision for America, there is no better source than his New York Times bestselling book, It Takes a Family. It Takes a Family is one of the most profound and comprehensive books of political thought ever written by a politician. Santorum offers a penetrating look at the social, political, and economic shifts that have hurt American families—and a principled, genuinely conservative plan for reversing this slide. Here Santorum explains his core beliefs, laying out a humane vision that he believes must inform public policy if it is to be effective and just. Politicians of both parties, he shows, fail to address the way Americans truly live their lives: in families, neighborhoods, churches, and communities. It Takes a Family is animated by an appreciation for the civic bonds that unite a community—an appreciation that lies at the heart of genuine conservatism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revealing memoir of how Washington is changing---and not for the better During a storied thirty-year career in the U.S. Senate, Arlen Specter rose to Judiciary Committee chairman, saved and defeated Supreme Court nominees, championed NIH funding, wrote watershed crime laws, always staying defiantly independent, "The Contrarian," as Time magazine billed him in a package of the nation's ten-best Senators. It all ended with one vote, for President Obama's stimulus, when Specter broke with Republicans to provide the margin of victory to prevent another Depression. Shunned by the GOP faithful, Specter changed parties, giving Democrats a sixty-vote supermajority and throwing Washington into a tailspin. He kept charging, taking the first bursts of Tea Party fire at public meetings on Obama's health care--reform plan. Undaunted, Specter cast the key vote for the health plan. In Life Among the Cannibals, Specter candidly describes the battles that led to his party switch, his tough transition, the unexpected struggles and duplicity that he faced, and his tumultuous campaign and eventual defeat in the 2010 Pennsylvania Democratic primary. Taking us behind the scenes in the Capitol, the White House, and on the campaign trail, he shows how the rise of extremists---in both parties---has displaced tolerance with purity tests, purging centrists, and precluding moderate, bipartisan consensus.
