Review\n"America faces several large and growing societal divides that threaten our future. These include educational, ethnic, ideological, political, racial, income, and wealth divides. David Ellison's latest book addresses many of these and related lessons from history. It's purpose is to help bridge the divides and create a better future." - David M. Walker, Former U.S. Comptroller General and author of America in 2040: Still a Superpower?\n"Regardless of which side of the political divide you're on, everyone would agree that the America we've known is at risk. David Ellison has formulated a solution. Well researched, thoughtful, and centric, this book provides straightforward and overdue 'fixes' to strengthen our institutions, heal our country and get us back on track to our originating ideals." - Rich Kuepper, Leadership Expert, Speaker, Entrepreneur\n"Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, Repairing Our Divided Nationis impressively informative, thoughtful and thought-provoking -- making it a timely and unreservedly recommended addition to community, college, and library Contemporary Social Issues collections and Political Science supplemental curriculum studies lists. It should be noted for students, academic, governmental policy makers, political activists, social reformers, and non-specialist general readers with an interest in the subject that [this book] is also readily available in a digital format (Kindle, $7.99). 
- Midwest Book Review\n"Anyone looking for a good overview of the nation's political history and a well-thought-out proposal for problem-solving within the government, society, and the educational system will find it here. 
..... As Ellison declares, 'Now is the time to repair our divided nation.' He has given readers both the reason for such a divide and the way forward to bringing the nation together....Few can argue that modern America faces problems stemming from partisanship in government and racial inequity in society. In his brief but well-defined treatise, the author discusses how the United States became a nation divided along party lines in both the private sector and government, why racism still has its hold on American society, and how the educational system can be used to help rectify these problems." - US Review of Books\nDavid Ellison wrote Repairing Our Divided Nation because he, like so many others, is frustrated with the division he sees in our nation, particularly when it comes to race and politics. In his desire to help create a better world for all – no matter one’s color or political persuasion – Ellison studied the works of some of the world’s most respected scholars and summaries of notable Supreme Court cases that continue to negatively impact society today. 
With malice toward none, Repairing Our Divided Nation offers: 
• History lessons that should be required reading for all Americans. 
• A demand that Congress stop abdicating its responsibilities. 
• A plan for running our elections so the best people are sent to Washington to serve We the People. 
• A proposal for improving our schools’ curricula and administration. 
• A call for guaranteeing that all Americans, no matter their color, wealth, or zip code, have a real chance at becoming economically self-reliant and living a life with dignity. 
This book concludes with four of the most important documents in America’s history: the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Amendments to the Constitution, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “Letter from a Birmingham Jail.” Ellison believes that if every American did a deep dive into understanding each document’s message, we would have the more perfect Union our Founders envisioned.
