Summary:

A former nine-time congressman and one of the most respected commentators on politics and society, Kasich believes that traditional American values are in serious danger of being lost. Kasich asserts that this erosion of moral values can be attributed to, among other things, disappointing leadership from elected officials, the growing lack of ethics in business and sports, religious intolerance, and mass media and popular culture. By addressing such fundamental issues as honesty, personal responsibility, integrity, and the importance of leaving the world a better place, Kasich offers a heartfelt and straightforward solution for all Americans to help reset our moral compass.--From publisher description.
