Before Donald Trump successfully mobilized millions of blue collar Americans with his campaign to reclaim America, Rick Santorum was trying to convince his fellow Republicans that it was time to return to the party’s original values: the values of “blue collar conservatives.” In this powerful book that helped inspire President-Elect Trump’s winning message to voters, Santorum calls out Republican establishment leaders for pandering to business owners at the expense of everyone else. Republicans need to regain the trust of the hard-working members of every family, church, and community across America whose most immediate problems are lack of jobs and opportunity. No more pandering. No more ignoring those left behind by globalization. No more broken promises to the frustrated middle class. We're entering a brand new era of conservative politics—and Rick Santorum's Blue Collar Conservatives shows us the way forward.

Jim Morris was a country boy whose father was out of work for a time due to a union strike. The hardship his family experienced as a result left a lasting enmity against all unions. After school, Jim became restless and decided to hitchhike around the country and explore what he had studied while in school. It didnt take long to get into some interesting situations that would change his life forever. Cold, broke, and hungry, Jim tried to enlist in the Navy and Air Force only to be turned down because their quotas were full. He reluctantly jointed the Marines, a move he never regretted. While in the Marines he partnered up with a Jewish fellow who remained his lifelong friend right up to the White House. After the Marines he married a preachers daughter, going against all odds. After several years and nearly losing his wife, he gave his heart to the Lord. He didnt like what the public schools were teaching his children which led him into minor politics, then to the state house and finally the White House. While campaigning, he discovered a sinister plot of the government which cemented his election as the Tea Party candidate.

Stupid is the new smart—but it wasn’t always so Popular culture has divorced itself from the life of the mind. Who has time for great books or deep thought when there is Jersey Shore to watch, a txt 2 respond 2, and World of Warcraft to play? At the same time, those who pursue the life of the mind have insulated themselves from popular culture. Speaking in insider jargon and writing unread books, intellectuals have locked themselves away in a ghetto of their own creation. It wasn’t always so. Blue Collar Intellectuals vividly captures a time in the twentieth century when the everyman aspired to high culture and when intellectuals descended from the ivory tower to speak to the everyman. Author Daniel J. Flynn profiles thinkers from working-class backgrounds who played a prominent role in American life by addressing their intellectual work to a mass audience. Blue Collar Intellectuals shows us how much everyone—intellectual and everyman alike—has suffered from mass culture’s crowding out of higher things and the elite’s failure to engage the masses.

Trump, the Blue-Collar President by Anthony Scaramucci: Conversation Starters His father is a construction worker who used his life insurance to pay for his college. His family celebrated with a mortgage-burning ceremony after the 30-year mortgage was finally paid off. Anthony Scaramucci says Trump had the same origins. He and Trump come from the same true blue-collar worker families. Their fathers believed that "the harder you worked, the more opportunity you afforded your family." As President Donald Trump's former Communications Director, his rise to the most important communications office in the world is seen as exceptional, described by admirers as like a comet that soared high, burning brighter before it flamed out. The nation watched as the Mooch reached renown and then cast out from the White House. He tells his story in his book, comparing it to a Shakespeare tragedy. Trump, The Blue-Collar President is written by Scaramucci who is one of Worth Magazine's Power 100: The Most Powerful People in Global Finance in 2016.

To be faithful to the gospel, all ministry must be indigenous; it must participate in the distinctive practices and perspectives of the people among whom ministry is taking place. Because our society tends to ignore or deny the reality of class divisions and prejudice, too many congregational leaders know too little about the world of working class whites. Continuing his groundbreaking work on class and American religion, Sample opens up the lives and lifestyles of working class whites in order to engage with them in authentic and transformational ministry.From the Circuit Rider review: "Tex Sample has written one of the most fun books to read on ministry that you will ever come across. Weaving philosophy, theology, country western lyrics, and stories throughout the book Sample at once delights and provokes us to think about the way in which we live out church in this day and age."
