Product Description
In A NATION OF SHEEP, Judge Andrew P. Napolitano frankly discusses how the federal government has circumvented the Constitution and is systematically dismantling the rights and freedoms that are the foundation of American democracy. He challenges Americans to recognize that they are being led down a very dangerous path and that the cost of following without challenge is the loss of the basic freedoms that facilitate our pursuit of happiness and that define us as a nation.
Judge Napolitano reminds readers what America is all about, that the purpose of government is to protect freedom, and freedom is the ability to follow your own free will and not the will of government bureaucrats. He asks the simple question, which are YOU, a sheep or a wolf? Do you blindly follow behind where you are led, or do you challenge the government at every pass, forcing it to make decisions that will protect our freedoms?
Judge Napolitano asks the questions that no one else will, challenging readers to rethink why they are blindly following a government that has only its own interests in mind. He asks:
- Why is the government using the war on terror as an excuse to sidestep the Constitution?
- Why are Americans not challenging and questioning the government as it continues to limit more and more of our freedoms?
- What part of "Congress shall make no law..." does the government not understand when it criminalizes speech?
- Whatever happened to our inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that are proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence, guaranteed by the Constitution, yet ignored by the governments elected to protect them?
- Why does every public office holder swear allegiance to the Constitution, yet very few follow it?
- Dont we have rights that are guaranteed and cannot be taken from us?

The two books I recommend the most are "A Nation of Sheep" and Ron Pauls "Revolution: A Manifesto"
Waste of time
Rating Point :1 Helpful Point :0
There was nothing in this book I couldnt get by watching 30 minutes of network news. Big government and the President are breaking constitutional law and using the War On Terror to justify it. So what do we do, become a wolf?
I wonder if Mr. Napolitano really wrote this book. Total waste of time.
Excellent warning about government abuse
Rating Point :3 Helpful Point :1
Judge Napolitano utters a powerful warning from the unique perspective of a judge thoroughly familiar with police and government abuse. He chronicles violations of the Constitution with clear prose. However, he lacks a thorough understanding of the problem -- why has government become so abusive? Why have people morphed into sheep? For answers to these questions, check out my book on Amazon Common Sense II: How to Prevent the Three Types of Terrorism. It solves crime, tyranny, and foreign terrorism (the three types). And I give a map of how to restore our republic. Still, overall, Judge Napolitanos is a must-read for concerned citizens.
An excellent book on a very serious subject
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :4
Ive often felt as if I were among the few Napolitano calls wolves: Americans that dare to scream, holler and shout when government violates our Constitution. But even knowing of the vast Constitutional abuses I have been witness to in my lifetime, I never realized how widespread (and indeed, how old) some of the most egregious violations of our Constitution are.
This book is a must read for all Americans. The American government is ours, and we must awaken to its behavior before we lose the ability to do anything about it.
Good examples, but mediocre writing
Rating Point :3 Helpful Point :0
An OK treatment of all the abuses perpetrated in the name of "freedom" on our liberties. The author has some great examples, but the writing quality could be better.
Ron Paul has always believed that foreign and domestic policy should be conducted according to the same principles. Government should be restrained from intervening at home or abroad because its actions fail to achieve their stated aims, create more 
This Much Is True You Have Been Lied To.The government is expanding. Taxes are increasing. More senseless wars are being planned. Inflation is ballooning. Our basic freedoms are disappearing.The Founding Fathers didnt want any of this. In fact, they
