The American Answer of humble use of Power for good

I laughed a bit when I read the libertarian socially leftist "conservative" poster on this book talked about the author presenting a protestant view, that would leave him out, when the author is actually catholic :-). This book presents the humble conversion of a man who had a lot of power as a senator. Lying at deathbed fighting a deadly disease, he humbled himself and came to realize the important truth that humility is the God exalted path to true greatness. The author presents his views on whole life that goes above just prolifer on [...] to a strong next position lead on the issue. He is obviously a strong leader to protect life at all levels. Obviously, the basic purpose of our government is to protect our right to LIFE, liberty and pursuit of happiness. There is nothing more important for government to do than to use all its powers to humbly protect all life (unborn, young, old, disabled, of all races and ethnicity), including the life of the leftists who are supporting government regulated abortions as China does. This author's belief obviously led him to rescue a child from the clasps of the evil one in China and gain a wonderful blessing of another daughter in his own house. What a wonderful example of adoption as a wonderful alternative to murdering a child in the name of population control. Thanks Sam.
