Reveals ‘only way to turn nation around’

Heritage Foundation President and CEO Jim DeMint

With the national debt continuing to soar, bloated government getting further entrenched and the nuclear American family in decline, America’s brightest days might seem to be behind her. But Heritage Foundation President and CEO Jim DeMint has good news: The nation can rise stronger than ever simply by following the proven course that triggered greatness in the first place.

DeMint served in both the U.S. House and Senate before resigning in 2013 and taking the helm at Heritage. In his new book, “Falling in Love with America Again,” DeMint says he decided to apply his efforts to the private sector because making real change happen within the government proved to be very difficult.

With a national debt well north of $17 trillion, federal government gathering more power and families seemingly facing more challenges than ever, DeMint said it’s a fair question as to whether America can right the ship.

“An intellectual analysis of where we are would say we probably passed the tipping point. Technically, it’s going to be very difficult to turn around. That’s my head analysis,” DeMint said. “My heart analysis is that I know the spirit of freedom still runs deep within the hearts of millions and millions of Americans. I also know that this country has been blessed by God, it’s in His hands and that spiritual revival is still very possible in our country.

“We’ve got a better chance of turning our country around than our founders did, winning a war of independence against Britain. The odds have been against us before. We can turn it around, but only if people understand what’s wrong,” he said.
