REACHES OUT TO SARAH PALIN
SENDS VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
ADVANCE COPY OF HIS NEW BOOK
‘TED, WHITE, AND BLUE: THE NUGENT MANIFESTO’
OUT OCTOBER 6
Sarah Palin was the first name on TED NUGENT’s list to receive an advance copy of TED, WHITE, AND BLUE: THE NUGENT MANIFESTO, comprised of 16 chapters on how to fix America. This week, the multi-platinum guitar icon, best-selling author and outspoken activist sent the book—due October 6 via Regnery Publishing—to Palin with a note in praise of the vice presidential nominee’s “bold spirit.”
Wrote Nugent: “We who live our American Dream by God, truth, logic, goodwill and decency, thank you for bringing such defiant common sense and self evident truth back to the GOP and politics.”
A fellow hunter and outdoors enthusiast, Nugent concludes his note to Palin by saying: “We wish you Godspeed for the best hunting and fishing season of your life and pray to God almighty that you bring your bold spirit to the White House.” (The full text of the note is below.)
Nugent describes his book as "Brutal honesty and irrefutable evidence that the amazing quality American Dream that is my life is available to anyone willing to fight for rugged individualism and genuine independence by putting their heart and soul into being the very best that they can be, even when it is difficult and trying.” He adds: “If a wild guitar player like me can be an asset to self, family, community, country, mankind and the good earth, nobody has an excuse to be a liability. Doing the right thing is ridiculously easy and always much more satisfying."
TED WHITE, AND BLUE: THE NUGENT MANIFESTO can be pre-ordered at www.amazon.com.
