Overview

Americans are disgusted with their Congress. Instead of being the agent of the people, it's become the setting for endless and vicious political warfare between the Democratic and Republican parties. Buoyed by an equally corrupted electoral system, many members of Congress have turned their attention from their constituents to their own desire to stay in office. In doing so, they've allowed campaign money to drown out the voice of the people. While the two parties slug it out, the nation hurtles toward disaster. Recent elections and the grass-roots emergence of the Tea Party movement prove that Americans seek fundamental change in government. There's four constitutional mechanisms available to force Congress to change; speech, assembly, petition and elections. But Congress isn't seeing or hearing us, and elections only replace one failed party with the other, over and over again. The American people desperately seek a more effective tool to make Congressional reform happen. The Next American Revolution: How to Demand Congressional Reform NOW is an extraordinary book that reveals what that tool is and how it can save our country. The Founding Fathers left their descendants with a never used, yet very real and effective fifth constitutional people power. Americans need to lay aside their differences and focus their combined strength toward one common cause---a revolution calling for a convention of the states specifically and solely for the purpose of restoring a people's legislature. The author explains why this is our best (and last) hope of seriously reforming the legislative branch of government. Each step of the process is summarized and three proposed amendment ideas are suggested: term limits; campaign finance reform; and increased electoral competition. Bridging modern Americans' love for liberty and their Constitution with that of their ancestors', the book is interspersed with quotes and images of leading figures from America's rich, revolutionary history. Charles R. Hooper empowers the citizens of America with the information needed to force congressional reform. Each individual American has the right and the power to legally, safely, and effectively take back their Congress.
