The battle for control of the Republican Party has been ongoing for decades; however, it has been especially intense over the last few years, the time period chronicled in this book. On the one side are the party bosses and insiders, and on the other side are the grassroots conservatives. Usually the party leadership battles and presidential nominations are won by the more moderate establishment wing of the party, which has all the advantages in terms of funding, endorsements and publicity.
After years of this ineffective GOP leadership, the 2016 election proved to be the time that the Republican Party finally returned to its grassroots and the conservative principles outlined in its platform. With the nomination of Donald Trump, it was the year the Republican establishment was finally defeated.
It remains to be seen whether Trump can defeat Hillary Clinton, and bring conservative values back to the White House. However, at least as a fighting conservative he will have a chance to defeat her. Only a Trump victory will provide our country the opportunity to recover from the incredible damage of the Obama years. A President Hillary Clinton could be the death knell of this country.
The stakes for a presidential election have never been higher. This political revolution must succeed. If not, the prospects for our beloved country are very bleak. In this election, it is imperative that all Republicans unite behind Donald Trump and his conservative agenda. Once that occurs, the Republican Party will reclaim the White House, and, most importantly, our country will be saved.

The 2016 election is “the last chance for the American people to take back control of their government.” ~ U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) 2/1/16
2016: America is In Crisis
Debt Our debt now exceeds $19 trillion and our once vibrant economy is stagnant with 94 million Americans outside of the workforce.
Borders According to the 2015 U.S. Census, there are now 15.7 million illegal aliens in the country and 61 million immigrants overall. This massive demographic change impacts our language, culture and customs.
Terrorism Isis is causing havoc throughout the world and here in our country.
Weak leadership America desperately needs strong leadership and a new direction, not the same big government solutions which have created problems.
The presidential election of 2016 may be the most important one in our history. Progressivism has created the mess, and another eight years of it may be the death knell for America as we know her.
“This election may be our last chance to elect a real conservative or change agent as President. If we fail to stop the deadly march of liberalism, the negative consequences for America will be devastating. ” ~ Jeff Crouere 3/8/16
This is truly “America’s Last Chance.” And Republicans need to nominate an electable candidate who respects the Constitution, understands our role in the world, and is prepared to reignite American pride along with her economy and her standing on the world stage.
America’s Last Chance provides readers with the formula for victory in November and the type of change our country desperately needs to not only survive, but, in the words of Donald Trump, to “Make America Great Again.”
