synopsis

Synopsis
This book is the third volume in “The Making of a Great America” series. The first book in the series, “The Making of a Great America Where the Founding Fathers and the Church Fell Short,” is more of a historical account of the handling of racism by political and religious leaders from the Founding Fathers to the present. The second book, “The Making of a Great America Uprooting the Spirit of Racism,” explores more of racism's spiritual aspects and ties racism in America to specific manifestations and faces. It has a heavy emphasis on the roots of racism within America’s system of policing. This book primarily targets the evangelical community and its direct and indirect support of racism. In it, I share what it’s like as a born-again Christian and life-long black Republican voter to be forced to reconcile support of my party, my faith, and their tolerance of racism directed at people of color. This book will also help the reader understand that the divide that exists between black and white evangelicals is historical, persistent, and very much centered on issues of race. This book, as did the books before it, asserts that unless the leaders of the evangelical body of Christ, currently white evangelicals, do not shift their attitudes and stance on matters of race that they will lose their mantle of leadership in America. As the mantle shifts to other leaders in the body of Christ, a spiritual vacuum will be created that will harm the Christian witness in America and around the world.

Shame on You Fox News, Conservative Leaders

Yesterday President Trump used the word “genius” to describe Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Now that Russia has launched a full-scale invasion, I wanted to see what Fox News would say about the President’s remarks. I was disgusted by what I saw. I watched a former member of the Trump National Security team say that Putin’s aggression was President Biden’s fault. Unbelievable. To make matters worse, this official was at CPAC (an annual political conference. attended by conservative activists and elected officials). In two different books, I have blasted my former Republican Party and Christian conservatives for winking at President Trump’s admiration of Putin and his soft stance towards Russia. Conservative leaders in the Republican party and the Church defended President Trump while he was being impeached for his dealings in Ukraine. President Trump withheld vital military aid to Ukraine in exchange for information that would discredit Joe Biden. No American president has ever had such a conciliatory tone towards Russia. No American president has ever condoned Russian aggression. Not only has President Trump done both, but he has also done more to destabilize relationships with our key NATO allies than any president in my lifetime. Sadly this weakened NATO alliance is all that stands in the way of the Russian annexation of Ukraine. Shame on you Fox News, CPAC.

Book Excerpt

The Making of A Great America Made in the Image of TRUMP

This is an excerpt from the chapter entitled "Come Back to Your First Love":

Not only is it past time to end false claims about the election, but it’s also time for the Republican Party to come back to standards of decency and integrity. I am a huge George Bush fan. I shudder to think that President Bush, his father, and Senator John McCain can be said to have something in common with the president. Unfortunately, they do—“Republican nominee for president.”

I was taught that Republican leaders and certainly Christian leaders represented the moral high ground. But they winked at the president’s overtures to the Proud Boys, actions with Ukraine, attacks on Senator McCain (even after his death), communist state-style firings of the Attorney General, FBI Director, three National Security Advisors, the Secretary of Defense, the Director of Homeland Security, and key members of the State Department including the whistle-blower.
