Ted, White, and Blue: The Nugent Manifesto

I'm thinking it would be a bit of an understatement to say that Ted leans a bit to the conservative side.... but there was so much more to this book than politics. Ted sort of lets it rip on pretty much his entire belief system. If you are conservative, like guns and love America you will love this book. Even if you lean more to the middle, but just appreciate a unique way of making a point in print you'll enjoy this book.

This is an awesome book! Uncle Ted is right on in his beliefs. This is a man who values life, family, and nature. You just can't find a better American than Mr. Nugent!

This is a great book. Ted really tells it like it is. Thanks for great service. I will be back soon.

Arrogant? You bet... On topic, intelligent ideals with passion? You got that right! Ted, White and Blue should be read by every free thinking, rational American who believes in freedom, the Constitution, and old fashioned morals. It's really a shame that people like Ted more than likely do not run for public office. America could really benefit from many of the points covered by Ted in this book. I really enjoyed reading (for once) the truth spoken without fear about how far America has drifted to an age of entitlement. Freedom loving people need not just take it anymore, and stand up for what is right. Hold our politicians feet to the fire. We must realize what the founding fathers stood for, and what they believed people are capable of when the Government isn't involved. Ted's book doesn't just fill your head with useless banter or complaining. It most certainly encourages a different perspective. It's a perspective that brings your head out of the sand and into the fight. Love freedom? Then you'll love this book, but only if you have a spine and believe in yourself that is.

As a fee-only fiduciary in the business of providing investment advice, I'm dealing with a lot of random emotions these days as a result of our inept Beltway policies and unconscionable Wall Street greed. These "leaders" of ours lost their adult sense of reason around the risks associated with reality, and how to prudently manage them, in this case with money (and lots of it). Needing a little shot-in-the-arm of clarity around this concept of human nature and risks inherent in it, I busted open my ordered-in-advance copy of Ted Nugent credos as soon as it arrived yesterday. Reading a portion with two of my three recently adopted kids last night, we all felt energized with renewed conviction for the important things we're here to do in our lives. To see such a misunderstood man write about how in performing life's most difficult yet necessary tasks, "...it is equally manly to bawl my eyes out, sobbing uncontrollably over the heartbreak and trauma of such an act" (page 12), would surely help many to see that this is not a crazed lunatic, but one of the greatest humanitarians (and thankfully rock and rollers) to walk our planet in our lifetimes. The man is not perfect (and who is?) but he loves our Constitution, Declaration of Independence and Emancipation Proclamation ("The American Way") like few I've ever come across. With our global markets in turmoil as they are today, the need for elemental management of risk in complete awareness of primal reality is on high. Hunka Ted delivers exactly that, with intensity and certainty. Had more of our politicians and business people been even remotely in touch with the core issues elucidated here, we'd be in a period of continued prosperity now and not the pathetic state of fear and chaos that so many are shamelessly gripped by today. Godspeed to you, reader. Get the book, devour it and let's take the best of what it has to teach us in creating a better world for our kids. It's our gift to leave behind, let's celebrate and get it done now.
