Hold Texas, Hold the Nation: Victory or Death

Texas is booming. In recent years, the Lone Star State has experienced some of the most rapid growth in the country, both in its economy and in its population. This is thanks to an influx of businesses relocating to Texas to take advantage of all its benefits. But this increase in population has also brought about a shift in the political dialogue within Texas’s borders.

As more people pour into Texas, they bring with them liberal and socialist ideologies as they try to swing the state from red to blue. These plans for changing policies will suffocate the highly successful capitalist state and its residents, and according to Lt. Col. Allen West (Ret.), allowing these liberal ideals to creep into the legislative branch will be the death of Texas. In Hold Texas, Hold the Nation: Victory or Death, West explains how the longstanding conservative capitalist policies within the state’s government have allowed it to flourish over the years, providing hard-to-ignore evidence and allowing his experience in Congress to support his argument. He makes his stand, asserting that Texas must hold fast to its conservative ways and resist succumbing to liberal mindsets, or else cease to prosper, and begin to perish.

Texas is a sustaining force for America, truly embodying the founding principles of America: those unalienable individual rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In Texas, it’s ”Victory or Death.”

Review

“A modern battle cry.” — Mark R. Levin “Author and radio/TV host”

His research and solutions make this a must- read for anyone who bleeds red, white, and blue.” — Brian Kilmeade “Cohost, Fox & Friends; host, The Brian Kilmeade Show; New York Times bestselling author”

“Texas is under attack! Fill the sandbags, and dig the foxholes. Lt. Col. West delivers the strategy, insight, and “everything’s-bigger-in-Texas” attitude to defend the conservative government ideology that built our beloved Lone Star State.” — Sam Malone “Morning show host, AM 1070 The Answer, Houston, TX”

“Everything’s bigger in Texas . . . including politics. Hold Texas, Hold the Nation is Allen West’s powerful commentary on continued success in the Lone Star State.” –Tom Delay “Former Republican Leader, US House of Representatives”

“As an American and a Texan, I am thrilled to hear anything Allen West has to say about maintaining wise, conservative government for our state and our nation. Few have walked his path as a military hero, a member of Congress, and now a valuable private-sector writer and thinker. Allen West is an American treasure.” –Mark Davis “Talk show host, Salem Media Group”
