America in Perspective: Defending the American Dream for the Next Generation 

Contact Your Elected Officials

America in Perspective defends the defining American values of meritocracy, self-healing, and freedom by reviewing world history and charting a path forward.

America in Perspective argues, without hesitation, that America’s best days are ahead if only we can continue to embrace the ideas and values that got us here in the first place. When faced with challenges and conflict, our system of government allows us to self-correct and self-heal, and world history shows that this approach is uniquely American. Today, essential American values are being discredited, such as the American Dream and our meritocratic spirit. America in Perspective reviews American history, warts and all, and presents a path forward for modern America to secure a free and prosperous future for the next generation of Americans.

America in Perspective critically and comprehensively examines American history, analyzing the difficulties faced since our founding toward the advancement of equal rights and freedoms for all, to define a path forward for today’s greatest challenges. Major themes include restoring the American Dream for future generations by embracing meritocracy; our self-healing nature and ability to self-correct within the confines our Constitution and system of government (a rarity in world history); and the need for leaders to build consensus with the American people to change our laws.

Adam joined FreedomWorks in 2005, starting in the press department and gradually moving into a management role. Adam is responsible for setting the priorities of the entire family of FreedomWorks entities, including a 501(c)(3) foundation, 501(c)(4) issue activism effort, and two political action committees. Before FreedomWorks, Adam worked as a state-level campaign manager, high school teacher, and non-profit press secretary.
