Our Founding Fathers created the Bill of Rights to document our inalienable rights and to strictly limit the government's power. These ten amendments are the foundation of American exceptionalism--a foundation that is quickly eroding. With every new sweeping regulation and invasive policy, the Obama administration is twisting the Bill of Rights and corrupting its true purpose. Here to rescue this sacred document from the leftist politicians and activist liberal judges is Frank Miniter with Saving the Bill of Rights: Exposing the Left's Campaign to Destroy American Exceptionalism. Miniter examines and explains the Bill of Rights amendment by amendment, reminding us exactly what we can do--and what the federal government can't do. He reveals how we can return the power of the Bill of Rights to its proper role and reestablish our Founding Fathers' vision for America.
