Product Description GLENN BECK, award winning radio and TV host has been talking about "The 5000 Year Leap!"
Have you ever read a book which literally changed the course of your thinking and your life?
The founder's success formula, as presented in 5000 Year Leap would solve nearly every problem we have in American today if followed. This book will give you a feeling of confidence in today's confused world.
Once an individual has a working knowledge of the only correct and proven principles for freedom, prosperity, and peace, then other history can be taught from a whole different perspective. American History becomes a study of how the United States throughout its 200 plus years has either supported the principles of liberty and prospered, or violated these principles and suffered.
Can any other knowledge be more helpful to the rising generation in America today? America desperately needs better and stronger leaders. We need leaders who know correct answers and will step forward and make a positive diference in this world.

Required Reading February 18, 2010 Charles E. Whitman (Saint Peters, MO, US) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book covers twenty-eight principles that the United States was founded upon. Every American who has the privilege of voting should be required to read this book. The author suggests that the unique form of government established in the United States is the reason our country has prospered so wonderfully since the government was formed. A great introductory book which will cause me to further investigate the founders of our country.
Worth every cent February 13, 2010 Chad10052002 (Mansfield, Ohio USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The 5000 Year Leap is a profound addition to any study on Americas origins and the faith of the founders. Well researched and presented. All sources are cited thoughtfully and with detail. Any one who doubts the message of this book has a plethera of sources that they can research on their own. I did on a few and was satisfied with my findings corroborating the text with the source.
Great Political review of the last 200+ years. February 12, 2010 S. J. Hollist (DFW, TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Some of the ideas discussed may seem outdated and I can't say I agree 100% with every idea expressed, but if you ask me this would be a great book for anyone wanting a better understanding of the principles that made America the greatest nation in the world, and possibly in all of history. It's full of great Historical facts that every High School student should be learning, but probably isn't.
great book on how we have survived February 11, 2010 Bruce S. Pierce 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
this book explains how our Forefathers formed the most people usable government the world has seen and how we have survived the past 250 years in these UNITED STATES of AMERICA Land of the FREE & Home of the BRAVE
A Disappointing Reading February 8, 2010 Brian J. Landsberger (Las Vegas, NV) 5 out of 18 found this review helpful
For anyone looking for a rigorous review of principles of freedom this book will be a disappointment. No real analysis is completed in the book. Excessive use of quotations is used to convince the reader that if several people say something, it must be true. The book is more of a incomplete survey of selected writing use to promote a viewpoint. The book is really more of a religious book promoting Christianity as the solution to most everything coupled with some obvious generally accepted concepts of government. Because of the unusual political and economic situation created in the last decade in America restating those obvious concepts is perhaps the one redeeming value of the book. Unfortunately, most of the concepts contained in the 28 principle are not well developed, or in some cases just prejudicial.
