Glen Beck’s The Real America<\/i> attempts to give voice to “The Real America”–the one that cares about politics, but about more than politics. Beck discusses religion, celebrities, personal responsibility. For the most part, his views are classically conservative. His idea was good–talk about what America really cares about, not just the political stuff. However good this idea may be for a radio talk show, it makes a horrible book. This book was disorganized and not well thought out. There are too many good political and philosophical books out there to waste time with this one.<\/p>\n
