Plenty of people can tell you what America’s problems are. But who’s talking about what America’s future could be? Kendall Qualls, president of TakeCharge, presents a vision that’s closer than you think.

Script:
You don’t need me to tell you what America’s problems are. Plenty of people can do that.
Instead, let me tell you about America’s future. What it can be.
I’m not making a prediction.
But there is a new golden age waiting for us if we do just five things.
One:
Reconnect with our Judeo-Christian roots.
In this vision of the future, a majority of Americans realize we have to return to the basics. A new appreciation of traditional Judeo-Christian values takes place. Call it a new awakening.
We became an exceptional nation because we were a largely self-governing nation — the first in human history. The US Constitution begins with the phrase “We the People…”
But self-government only works if we are a moral country. And to be that we need to appreciate the source of our values: the Bible.
Our second President John Adams understood this right from the beginning.
“Our Constitution,” he wrote, “was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
Of course this doesn’t mean that you have to follow a specific religion, or any religion at all — that’s your Constitutional right — but it does mean that as a society we recognize Judeo-Christian values as our moral compass.
Pointed in the right direction, a new sense of civility returns. Politics remain as fractious as ever, but our debates are more about policy than personality; more constructive and less bitter.
Two:
We take control of our children’s education.
In this renewed America, Moms and Dads demand to be informed about exactly what their children are learning. They don’t take no for an answer. They get themselves elected to local school boards to make sure their wishes are enforced. Values-centered private schools, charter schools, online schools and home-schools sprout up all over the country.
Public schools stop being warehouses and become real places of learning.
Proficiency in reading, writing, and math become our preoccupation rather than subjects like racial grievance, gender identity, and global warming.
Music and art appreciation make a comeback. So do dress codes.
Discipline and test scores improve.
Three:
We laugh cancel culture out of existence.
America regains its sense of humor. Hypersensitive reactions to perceived slights are no longer taken seriously. We’re able to tell a harmless joke without worrying about being hauled into the Human Resources Office. And if we have gone too far, we’re quietly told to be a more self-aware and the matter is dropped. Lesson learned.
With the pressure off, the office environment improves, employees stop walking on eggshells and productivity increases. The spoiled brats lose influence.
A new Saturday Night Live appears — one that pokes fun at everyone and anyone, right and left — and it’s a huge success.
Four:
We become energy independent and secure our supply lines.
America becomes the world’s dominant energy producer. Not only do we produce more than enough energy for ourselves, but we produce enough to help our allies.
We do it by responsibly developing our almost limitless natural resources. We also greatly expand our nuclear power industry. Small and very safe next-generation nuclear power plants provide more clean energy every year.
Meanwhile, private business realizes the advantages of producing products from pharmaceuticals to heavy machinery in the United States. The government does all it can to encourage this boom, easing onerous regulations, insisting on fair trade agreements and, when necessary, imposing strategic tariffs. Along with economic growth comes growth in personal income. People feel prosperous again.

0:42 what about the classical antiquity of Greece and the Roman Republic? Ironic that a conservative/traditional mindset shows a profound lack of historical knowledge!
5) Yikes. Just Yikes. A thousand times yikes.
Amen!!!! Back to our roots! God and His word!
We can 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Step 6:Wield power so we don’t deal with these degenerates again!
This is good
As a Swede 🇸🇪 this maybe is true to my Country also. Som svensk gäller kanske detta mitt land också.
It could be a christofascist hellscape run by delusional MAGA cultists who refuse to accept the outcome of an election if their candidate loses, thereby rejecting democracy and embracing totalitarianism.
Could be great but will never happen. We’re done. We worship Satan here. We hate educators here too. We also like to cancel everyone and everything. We also love making fun of conservatives and religious folks. We also love spending money on hypothetical energy sources and hate energy that has been proven to work. We also hate straight people. They seem to be happy so it must be bad. We need to prove them wrong and become gay AF.
L takes
What a wonderful return that would be, but I fear that this society has reached a point of no return. The corruption is too deep-seated now and short of some sort of miracle from on high this experiment has failed. Each of us can and should shine the light in our own corner but the society as a whole is too far gone.

More Conservative brainwashing. We saw what Donald Trump and Republicans did. Just more Fred and self interest for politicians who defend the billionaires and big corporations. Why no Conservatives should be trusted, ever.
This is perfect and we can start with each of us. Thank you
Very good.
"We don't need to pass any Laws…"
Uhh, wrong.
This man wants economic growth whist cinultaonsly suggesting we ditch 50% of the workforce. The labour shortage would be insane not to mention how much skill you'd be wasting.
Love it!!!!
Number 4 could probably be better stated as “roll back economic restriction” or “return to the free market” where minimum wages become non-existent, government taxed startup costs and income tax are reallocated to sales tax or reduced altogether, anti-trust and monopoly acts are reevaluated to punish fewer false positives, and return economic power back to the consumer and the laws of supply and demand. That would naturally allow us to become energy independent as business owners would be incentivized to find cheaper ways to produce products (without having to loophole around tax restrictions), and start up costs for building business in the U.S. would be cheaper. Otherwise, great 5 things to look to improve upon.
Sad to hear from many others that this not going to happen and I can only bet one reason why. It feels like the only way America going end up the way it's being described here is if the left surrendered which I can just tell is not going to happen. That should actually be another 5 minute video topic. What If The Left Surrendered? And another video on what if conservatives surrendered and that will take care of just about everything that needs to be informed.
I want to believe… but everything in me says that this is fantasy land.
