I can't wait to get a copy, though it will probably be a long time. My funds are consistently in a depleted state.

Levin's past books Liberty and Tyranny, and Men in Black were both excellent, I have them both.

Only part of the way through but enjoying it! This just solidifies, for me, how much obama hates this country and is determined to undermine our way of life and steal our freedoms & liberties away by rule of unjust laws....hope we can oust this administration come November..peace all!

Just got my signed copy from premiere collectables! Of course it will look good on my shelf because I bought the audible book when it first came out. One question though, there are two signature pages, with both of them signed. Is this how every signed copy is? just curious.

What a brilliant and provocative knowledge of what's happening in our beloved country! A "MUST READ BOOK" for all freedom lover Americans.

If we don't take our freedom seriously now, then the future generations of Americans will have to fight tooth and nail to have an iota of the freedom our Constitution's established by our Founding Fathers, for individual liberty of all Americans.This is a struggle in the history of our country. But we never had a President who advocated fundamentally changing our government until now.

Thanks Mark! You're an inspiration for many of us to work harder to beat Pres. Obama, and the likes of him, out of our political system. If they believe that our Constitution is not the guiding light of our civil society, then they should go somewhere else to bid their claims.

I heard ML discuss this book and plan to get it on my ipad and play the audio book if available at the supermarket for my neighbors to hear as I make way through the aisles. I grieve that American children in public schools are being force-fed utopian expectations as their ultimate pursuit of happiness and emerging as the new socialists who are ill prepared for capitalist entrepreneurship. I will broadcast it from my shopping cart. I hope they don't prohibit me.

Dear Mark Levin,

Thank you for Ameritopia. Such compliments as “much needed” and “timely” are the natural epithets. But I would rather define it as a lifesaving antidote against the poison that Richard B. Bernstein and his numerous followers are injecting into the nation’s system.

Bernstein made “Amending America” his goal. I refer here especially to his cleverly subversive book, published in 2009, THE FOUNDING FATHERS RECONSIDERED. Unfortunately, the main message of the work is that the Constitution is a “living document.” But this does not mean that the Constitution is acceptable in our times, with reasonable modification, but rather that the original spirit of the Law is flawed and subject to constant tousling and revising, mainly because of the imperfect character of the Founding Fathers! Moreover, Bernstein wrote, the Constitution was not the product of “Platonic philosopher kings.” It was an experiment created more or less haphazardly, after many arguments and compromises, as necessity dictated. Its creators had no idea that posterity would name them “Founding Fathers,” and they were not aware that they were laying the permanent foundation of a new nation. Although you do not mention this deliberately misleading work, I consider Ameritopia its antithesis.

Thank God that the Founding Fathers were not Philosopher Kings, because they set up a government in defense of individual liberty, a concept altogether alien to the oppressive social philosophy of Plato. Individual liberty requires, first of all, the freedom of conscience, safe from the manipulation of the government. When you talk about “the power to dehumanize the individual and delegitimize his nature,” what do you mean? I perceive that, in the deepest sense, this means the power of smothering the individual’s God-guided conscience by the coercive arm of the State. Man is capable of “self-government" because of his God given gift of policing himself. We are able to tell the difference between right and wrong because we are listening to the “still small voice” of God. This “inner government” is the reason that “rugged individualism” does not lead to anarchy.

Bernstein points out that the original framers of the Constitution were the “usual cadre of elite white males.” This is true. But is this detrimental? Instead, we must realize that it is nothing short of miraculous that a group of nobles in the position of wealth and power voluntarily gave up their privileges to benefit the common people, not only in this country but, by example, in the whole world! It is, indeed, miraculous that George Washington, a victorious nobleman, refused kingship when it was offered to him. On the other hand, Napoleon, a commoner, could not wait to crown himself Emperor, Roman style. What made the difference? Washington did not betray the Revolution because he knew that God was watching, but Napoleon did not believe this; therefore, he had no scruples.

The Founding Fathers initiated the only legal government, the government of the people, by the people, and for the people. This is what the heirs of Plato, the so called “intellectual elite,” cannot bear. They fancy themselves Philosopher Kings. This is why they are trying to change the Constitution and are poised to discredit the Bible at the same time.

Thank you again for Ameritopia. By and large, the American people are not aware of what is happening to them, but I believe, as the Framers did, that the thirst for freedom is instinctual. All we need is the propagation of truth. I have been waiting for decades for someone to come along to point out that the deadly cancer of Plato’s political views are vile and virulent, and are destroying freedom in America; and in fact, not only here, but they prevent the birth of freedom all over the world.

Sincerely yours,
Maria Bethany
