This book is a blue print on the steps that must be taken to make America great again.

It addresses America's problems from war to health care; from energy and nuclear power to global warming; from illegal immigrants to reinstitution of the draft of all young Americans; from a national registration system for all Americans to a practical solution to the financial difficulties of Social Security. The views and solutions to these problems are expressed through the eyes of Richard Michael White, a seventy-one year old man who holds advanced degrees in both engineering and mathematics. As Richard's life progresses from being a student in high school, to serving as an Army Officer on active duty, to a thirty year professional career, to his eventual, early retirement at the age of fifty-seven, his view of America's most pressing problems changes and solidifies into a coherent and detailed plan on solving these problems.

The book begins as Richard describes the differences in the current world from 1957 when he graduated from high school to the present. He discusses Christianity and concludes that he might, or might not, be a Christian depending or your definition what it takes to be a Christian. He deals with the topics of love, sex, marriage, and divorce, and shows that although they are all related, they are all different. He believes that the most pressing problem facing the world is population growth.

Richard addresses the subject of America's energy dependence and pushes for an expansion of nuclear power. He also presses for the development of nuclear power from the element Thorium. He lays out a detailed blueprint to address Thorium's usage in power generation as well as using government owned Thorium nuclear reactors for coal gasification, shale oil extraction, and seawater desalination.
