ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I wish to thank my colleague, partner, and friend, Robert Spencer, for his meticulous hand in editing this essential guide. It is a joy to fight alongside one of this war’s leading lights. And a special thank you to John Jay, a wonderful sounding board, whose intellectual fidelity to our founding principles as well as to The Federalist Papers is indispensable.

Of course, this book would not be possible without the affection and unconditional support of my patient and loving family, for whom I do it all.

Lastly, and most importantly, I wish to thank all of my Atlas readers, Facebook “friends,” and fellow Tweeters who spread the word, send letters, go to rallies, write their congressmen, get involved in the election process, and ask the questions that inspired this book. You are the foot soldiers in this war. You will save the free world.
