An American Manifesto

By   Paul  A. Herbig


		

Dedication:

To Col. (ret) L.W. Cracken, my father-in-law but father in spirit
 so his near-four score of experience, wit and wisdom would be 
shared with the rest of the world and from whose many outstanding 
ideas many parts of this treatise was derived (and kudos to his 
beautiful wife, my mother-in-law, Marilyn); To John R.W. Cracken,
 my brother-in-law but brother in spirit for all the support given
 us through the years (and his lovely wife Heather); 
to my own parents for the love and support they have provided me 
throughout my 45 years of struggle, 
and To Rachel, Robert, and William, my family forever 
and eternal for their love and understanding throughout 
this long endeavor.

And to my old buddy Rick Kraas, whose Cadillaxy discussions twenty
 years ago led directly to this ideas expressed in this manuscript.
