In this powerful and game-changing book, Newt Gingrich explains what American exceptionalism really means, why the Left has waged an assault on it, and why a rededication to American exceptionalism is imperative to our country's survival. What is American exceptionalism? It is not the bragging of a pompous superpower. Rather, it is a system built on the unique belief that our rights do not come from the government but from God, giving honor and responsibility to the individual--not the state. Featuring a ''10 Things We Wouldn't Have without American Exceptionalism'' section and taking on everything from President Obama to the 2012 elections to our country's long-term future, "A Nation like No Other" is the defense of America that this country has been waiting for.
