This experience qualifies him to examine the cultural demoralization and the current fascination with anti-heroes. Huckabee pulls everything together and proposes a key to recovery- the return to basic values: faith, family, work, and community. About the Author Mike Huckabee recently completed more than ten years of public service as governor of Arkansas. In , Governing magazine named him among the Public Officials of the Year, TIME magazine called him one of the five best governors in America, and he received the AARP Impact Award recognizing those who have done something extraordinary to make the world a better place.
By rodboomboom Huckabee with Grant provide us with a fine delving into this issue which has so tugged at the hearts of Americans: our kids killing other kids.
Many thought this very thing would happen along with all the other cultural malice we have given the cultural downturn did not right itself. Convincingly and winsomely, this book presents the road America has been on and is being urged on by the postmodernists, but one that is destroying the very foundations and fabric of our great country They well document the contributors, and resolve that government and legislation are not the answer.
Culture must gather itself around these three areas, faith, family and work. Fine expose on the topic. We can't expect or let the government do those things for which we individually and communally were created to attend to as stewards. I finished it in less than 24 hours. Mike Huckabee was governor of Arkansas when the tragic schoolyard shooting took place in Joneboro. In the heat of such an unforeseeable horror, many voices offered soundbite explanations as to what could possibly have cause such nightmare-stretching pogrom.
Unfortunately, as the governor wisely points out, many of these diversely-intended know-it-alls look at one aspect of the problem but fail to dig deeply enough to reach it true roots. The books detailed hypotheses will not sit well with those who wish to utilize such a tragedy to call for strict gun control regulations.
The authors Dr. George Grant collaborated with the governor wisely explore the current splenetic forces at work throughout American culture from the breakdown of the family to Hollywood's repeated celebration of gratuitous violence. In one especially harrowing chapter the reader enters a perverse video game and sees just how much hate and violence is being peddled at American children. If the book has one drawback is that it may be that it will be confined to preaching to the choir.
Tumescent with quotes and references to support every idea propounded, the authors rely almost exclusively on conservative voices from William Bennett to Alan Keyes to Michael Medved.

People pay fair taxes. When the people fall on hard times, the government offers a helping hand. However, socialism is one economic system that never seems to work. For all the promises socialism makes, not one country that has utilized the system has become a success. Many point to Venezuela as an example. Governor Huckabee states that The Kids Guide to Fighting Socialism is meant to assist kids in understanding the differences between a socialist and a capitalist economy.
The Kids Guide to Socialism is a monthly publication, and, if parents order the bundle package, kids will be able to enjoy a streaming video lesson as well as a digital workbook. More information is available at KidsFightSocialism. In , a Gallup poll of young people aged 18 — 25 revealed that 51 percent of those responding viewed socialism favorably.
Only 45 percent of the same age group viewed capitalism favorably. In , the same age group was polled. At that time, 68 percent of 18 — 25 year-olds viewed capitalism favorably. In just eight years, those who believed socialism was a better economic system grew by 33 percent!
At one time, teachers utilized contemporary literature to teach the negative aspects of socialism. Animal Farm in particular showed how corruption among leadership could pollute any good socialism might be capable of doing. While many workers believed they could make the circumstances on the Farm better by working harder, no matter how dedicated they were in their service, it was never enough for the corrupt leadership.
