The Republic of Conscience

Torch. There are so many political books to consider reading that I was reluctant to pick up Gary Hart’s The Republic of Conscience. A very long time ago during a different presidential campaign season, I had dismissed the Gary Hart of the Monkey Business scandal and paid no attention to him since. I’m glad that I selected this book which provides advice both cogent and wise. Hart offers a perspective on moral authority, and the principles on which the United States was formed. This book is a plea for citizens to pick up the torch of our founders, and return this country to the republic is was formed to become. Some readers may be distracted by occasional partisan swipes, but most readers will find Hart’s assessment of our current situation rings true, and his prescription for a return to fundamental principles as a wise approach to pursue. If nothing else, time spent reading this book can tune out the current political clown shows and focus on something more important.
