Here's a conservative's viewpoint to share with your conservative friends or family: I know this seems like a stretch to Republicans or libertarian independents. I know Bernie Sanders has views that frighten economic conservatives like me. However, if you believe that Trump is not a choice we can afford to make, (not to mention Clinton) then allow me to try and convince you that Bernie Sanders isn’t as scary as you’ve let yourself believe, and if you care about America, you should support him.

"The world is seemingly full of disconnected crises, but Rob Kall begs to differ. An exceptional pattern thinker, he connects a range of contemporary challenges through a framework of bottom-up solutions in a world dominated by top-down thinking. Mining extensive interviews with thought leaders and exploring an eclectic mix of leading-edge ideas, Bottom-Up describes a variety of latent and emergent characteristics of an evolutionary paradigm shift that's changing the world. Whether your focus is in business, leadership, activism, or organizations, Kall offers a practical conceptual map and toolset to engage the planetary evolution taking place all around us. If you want to make a difference and need inspiration for how to participate in this global transformation, there is plenty in this book to draw from."
