In Search of Self-governance

Today, Americans are united. United in the belief that our political system is broken, that politicians are corrupt, and that neither major political party has the answers. Americans don't want to be governed from the left, the right, or the center. We want to govern ourselves."This book is dead-on in both its theory and timing. It poses a worthy and moral challenge to politicians and practitioners of politics to stand up for the people and their right to self-govern." - Joe Trippi, Political Strategist/former campaign manager for Howard Dean "...In Search of Self-Governance promises to be the type of provocative and compelling tome for the decade to come that The Third Wave and The Tipping Point were in decades past." - Carter Clews, Liberty Features Syndicate "In this brilliant and thoughtful essay (Rasmussen) unmasks the new fault line of our democracy: Mainstream America rising to reassert the supremacy of their sacred right of self governance over a failed Political Class grimly determined to preserve the primacy of their prerogatives of power. With calm reason Rasmussen lays out the contours of the struggle upon which may hang the ultimate fate of our American Experiment." - Pat Caddell, Political Strategist/pollster for President Jimmy Carter "...Rasmussen's book is useful and important in that it casts a light on what is happening in the private side of the public sphere where, outside of politics, real and usually constructive change is taking place. He broadens our perspective and reminds us that most of the great good in this world was not achieved on the floor of Congress, but in the hearts, minds, and actions of the individuals who make up America."- Dick Morris
