\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: This is Ann in Dayton, Ohio. Ann, I\u2019m glad you waited. Great to have you on the program. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m glad I got a chance to talk to you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you. <\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I\u2019m a schoolteacher, and I just wanted to let you know I am reading your first book, Rush Revere, to my kids. Third grade, and they are loving it, absolutely loving it.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims<\/a> is the one you\u2019re reading?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n

<\/a>RUSH: That\u2019s the first one.<\/p>\n

CALLER: The first one, yeah. We were talking about William Bradford in social studies and one little girl in the other class said, “Oh, Mrs. Lehman\u2019s reading a book with him in it.” And I said, “What book is that?” And she said, “Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims.” And the kids were all going, “It\u2019s really good, it\u2019s really good.” And so I asked her if I could borrow it to read it to my kids, and they are thoroughly enjoying it as well. I just wanted to let you know. It\u2019s a good piece of literature.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (laughing) Literature! I love that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I really appreciate that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: History and it\u2019s fun. They like Liberty.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, yeah. Liberty is fast becoming a big ego problem.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Everybody loves Liberty. Liberty\u2019s actually a good guy. I\u2019m just making a joke about him becoming an ego freak. He\u2019s actually handling it quite well.<\/p>\n

CALLER: We borrowed the book from a little girl in the other class. Her dad bought her the book and he bought her the second book so now the other teacher\u2019s reading the second book to her kids, and she\u2019s gonna pass it on to me so I can read the second book to my kids, so they\u2019re just really enjoying it.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, that\u2019s just awesome. ‘Cause, you know, I\u2019ll tell you what I want to do. When we finish I want to stay on the phone, and Mr. Snerdley will get your address \u2019cause I want to send you the audio version of both books and a couple new copies of both so that you won\u2019t have to be swapping \u2019em back and forth.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, that would be great!<\/p>\n

RUSH: I know you didn\u2019t call for that reason, but you start swapping books back and forth and sometimes you don\u2019t get \u2019em back, and I\u2019d really like to do it anyway. <\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, that would be wonderful.<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right. <\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m looking forward to reading the second one.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, they\u2019re so much fun to do.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/map>\n<\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s such an important — for example, I\u2019m reading this stuff about this guy, I\u2019ve mentioned this, Thomas Piketty, this French Marxist, communist economist<\/a> who is on this great tear here to get rid of wealth simply because he thinks it\u2019s immoral, the idea of wealth is immoral, and everybody ought to have income equality and so forth. And, you know, was there income equality with the Pilgrims? They tried it and it didn\u2019t work. They tried.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right. That\u2019s about where we are in the first book.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Exactly right. It didn\u2019t work. They tried socialism. You know, it amazes me. It\u2019s been tried, it never works, and yet every group of people who try the latest time say, “Well, we are the right people. We\u2019re the ones who are gonna do it the right way.” And there is no right way for socialism, communism, or what have you. But look, you made my day. I really appreciate it because a labor of love goes into these things and we\u2019ve got big plans for \u2019em and to hear that you and the adults and the kids like it just as well is great. So hang on and Mr. Snerdley will get your address so we can send you all that stuff, audio versions and the hard copies.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, I\u2019m so excited. Thank you so much.<\/p>\n
