Review of Be The People by Carol M. Swain, PH.D.

As a conservative Christian who feels that America has taken a wrong turn for the worse, I feel that a book like "Be the People" written by Carol M. Swain, PH.D. helps open the eyes of the unsuspecting public. With its in depth detail and facts, Mrs Swain takes you on a trip of our ancestry and the creation of this great nation.

The book takes on a lot of aspects but seems to mainly stick to the authors opinion and clear objective as a self proclaimed Conservative. As an African American, the author also takes on the topic of President Obama and the over usage of the race card in the political field today. She seems to spend a lot of time on the topic and might alienate some of the readers with her opinion which is sometimes loosely based on facts.

The author also takes on such issues such as abortion, immigration, racism, marriage, divorce, and homosexuality. Many times, Bible is brought up, the views of experts and possible theories versus her own opinion which tends to help the reader take in the depth of the information without taking too much offense.

Overall, I would let those who are followers of the political arena and/or a conservative Christian that this book is a good addition to your library. While it may not be that needle in the haystack type of reading, it still gives some insight to a topic that needs to be brought to the forefront of the American people.
