About this listen
Listeners who want to better understand the founding principles of America, as expressed in the words of the Founding Fathers, will love this book. In developing The Founders' Speech to a Nation in Crisis, author Steven Rabb spent two years compiling the words of the Founding Fathers into narrative form, weaving their texts into a single powerful speech to America. His purpose was to give depth to the conversation happening in America today about America's founding ideals. In so doing, Steven has also created a single source of "best of" quotes from the Founding Fathers that will be heard and reheard for generations to come.
Steven Rabb has created a powerful audiobook through the synergized writings of America's Founding Fathers. Through their words, Steven has demonstrated with amazing clarity the continuing relevance of America's founding ideals, and their resonance for our nation today. Framing the work as a reunion between the Founders in contemporary America, Steven gives voice to their views on modern-day issues, from religious liberty and the rule of law to freedom of speech and the continuing threat of tyranny.
The Founders' Speech to a Nation in Crisis is a tapestry of the Founders' own words, written in 10 chapters and woven into a single, powerful speech and call to action for every American. The continuing relevance of our Founders' words - as revealed in this unique, meticulously crafted work - is a clarion call to defend our natural rights that will stun listeners and leave them celebrating America's founding ethos and principles.

Do you really want the crooked baby-kissers and fake news to tell you what your rights are? Wouldn’t you rather discover them for yourself? The founders fought tirelessly to guarantee these God-given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. But let’s face it - the Bill of Rights is hard to understand. Its text is flowery and puzzling. It’s full of legal and political jargon.

The American Revolution was neither inevitable nor a unanimous cause. It pitted neighbors against each other as loyalists and colonial rebels faced off for their lives and futures.

Open borders, record inflation, and skyrocketing crime—Joe Biden’s first term is one of the most craptastic in American history. But on Planet Brandon, it’s all going according to plan . . . He received 81 million votes. His party controlled the House and the Senate. He took office with a nearly 60 percent approval rating. His first month saw the economy recovering nicely and the new COVID-19 vaccines being distributed around the country. And, in his words, he had the awesome power to mobilize “truinernashabada pressure.”

How is it that the law enforcer itself does not have to keep the law? How is it that the law permits the state to lawfully engage in actions which, if undertaken by individuals, would land them in jail? These are among the most intriguing issues in political and economic philosophy. More specifically, the problem of law that itself violates law is an insurmountable conundrum of all statist philosophies. The problem has never been discussed so profoundly and passionately as in this essay by Frederic Bastiat from 1850. This essay might have been written today. It applies to our own time.

Alexis de Tocqueville's renowned analysis of American democracy still has relevance today. In 1831 de Tocqueville was sent to America by the French government to study the U.S. penal system, but his real aim was to observe a democratic republic firsthand to see if such an entity could function with dignity and humanity. His travels, which took him to the cities of the Northeast, to the frontier and the Great Lakes, down the Mississippi and through the South, showed him a great deal about the United States. In 1834, he wrote Democracy in America, in which he examines the advantages and pitfalls of democracy, the conditions and conflicts among the races, and the movements that grip the country.

This famous treatise began as a letter to a young French friend who asked Edmund Burke’s opinion on whether France’s new ruling class would succeed in creating a better order. Doubtless the friend expected a favorable reply, but Burke was suspicious of certain tendencies of the Revolution from the start and perceived that the revolutionaries were actually subverting the true "social order". Blending history with principle and graceful imagery with profound practical maxims, this book is one of the most influential political treatises in the history of the world.

Promoting a creator-God while advocating reason in the place of revelation, Paine’s controversial pamphlet caused his native British audience, fearing the results of the French Revolution, to receive it with more hostility than their American counterparts.

Dr. Arnn, president of Hillsdale College, reveals this integral unity of the Declaration and the Constitution. Together, they form the pillars upon which the liberties and rights of the American people stand. United, they have guided history's first self-governing nation, forming our government under certain universal and eternal principles. Unfortunately, the effort to redefine government to reflect "the changing and growing social order" has gone very far toward success.

Story
Aristotle's Politics is a work of political philosophy. The end of Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics declared that the inquiry into ethics necessarily follows into politics, and the two works are frequently considered to be parts of a larger treatise, or perhaps connected lectures, dealing with the philosophy of human affairs. Aristotle is generally regarded as one of the most influential ancient thinkers in a number of philosophical fields, including political theory.

Story
"Anarchy" (1907) is a political classic written by famous anarchist Errico Malatesta. "Anarchy is a word which comes from the Greek, and signifies, strictly speaking, without government: the state of a people without any constituted authority. Before such an organization had begun to be considered possible and desirable by a whole class of thinkers, so as to be taken as the aim of a party (which party has now become one of the most important factors in modern social warfare)."

The complete texts of the documents that tell the story of the clashes and compromises that gave birth to the Unites States of America. Should the members of the government be elected by direct vote of the people? Should the government be headed by a single executive, and how powerful should that executive be? Should immigrants be allowed into the United States? How should judges be appointed? What human rights should be safe from government infringement? In 1787, these important questions and others were raised as the states debated the merits of the proposed Constitution.

Story
From the invention of writing around 3,300 BC, the world has mostly been ruled by kings. Though called by different names: Pharaohs, Chieftains, Emperors, Caesars, Sultans, Khans, Maharajas, Monarchs, and Dictators, they act the same. Power, like gravity, concentrates into the hand of one person, who rewards his friends and punishes his enemies. In socialist and communist countries, too, though professing equality, they inevitably end up being ruled by dictators.

Its text is flowery and puzzling. It’s full of legal and political jargon.

Really Nice
I purchased this book three times now. Once in audio format and then a couple more in print. The book is a fictionalized speech given by the Founders using entirely quotes from all the great liberty figures in history. If you are very well read you won't find much new here, but I still think the reading is quite worth it. And to those not so well read, it's a fantastic shorthand for those not as familiar with the words and ideas of the Founders. I got the print version just to have the compendium of quotes at my finger tips.
Do recommend. It is uplifting mostly and can illuminate many topics of today.

INFO FOR THE EVERYMAN
Our Founding Fathers sought to create “ a more perfect Union.” It is obvious by the many quotes of these creative minds that they thought long and hard. We as a people should be most thankful for the opportunity they have afforded all of us. It is now our responsibility to hold dear that which they have created. Everyman should be required to hear the texts that Rabb has compiled for us: to learn, to understand, and to live.
This is a work you can listen to over and over again to inspire you on a daily basis.

A great revisit of our founders thoughts and words
Steven Rabb has done a great job researching and compiling the thoughts of our founders. His delivery in speech format was right on.. live and let live. Accept alternatives and wait and work for changes. Taking full control of the government by destroying the opposition party and forcing your will upon the all the people from the federal government IS tyranny.
