In an interview with CNSNews.com about his new book- Ameritopia: The Unmaking of America- Mark R. Levin said he believes America has already largely become “a post-constitutional country.”

The book, released Monday, compares the Utopian and unworkable schemes laid out by political philosophers from Plato to Thomas Hobbes with the vision of natural law, God-given rights, and individual liberty that inspired the Founding Fathers when they wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

“Utopianism is not new,” Levin writes in Ameritopia. “It has been repackaged countless times—since Plato and before. It is as old as tyranny itself.  In democracies, its practitioners legislate without end.  In America, law is piled upon law in contravention and contradiction of the governing law—the Constitution.”

Levin’s verdict: Barack Obama and modern American liberals are firmly in the Utopian camp—pursuing a vision fundamentally at odds with limited government and human freedom.

“I believe to a great extent we now live in a post-constitutional country, where much of the Constitution is ignored or evaded,” Levin told CNSNews.com.

“What I want the readers to understand, what I want the public to understand is, this is not new and it’s going to destroy us,” said Levin. “It’s going to destroy us because it is an attack on the individual. It is an attack on the nature of human beings.”

Here is a video interview (new window) with Mr. Levin – it’s just under 27-minutes but well worth your time and patience.

I hope you listened to the interview. Mr. Levin has written other best-selling books that are important to freedom and liberty – Liberty and Tyranny and Men In Black – both available in the right sidebar. I encourage you to buy Ameritopia: The Unmaking of America today. Read it, understand it, and vote to unseat Barack Obama and other Leftist politicians in your area.
