Now is the time to fight for the American dream: Author Timothy Goeglein

In two previous books he offered a recipe for hope based on education and faith.

But he continued to hear the same question from friends and audiences: “What happened to America?”

Well, in his latest book, Stumbling towards utopiathe former Bush adviser and vice president of Focus on the Family answered this question. “The answer is simple: the last attempt to create a utopia failed, the 1960s.”

Goeglein's book comes at a critical time. Vice President Kamala Harris, a proponent of utopian policies, is being challenged by former President Donald Trump, who promises to close the floodgates on progressive policies.

But it was Harris who said this week that the American dream was no longer achievable, in part because of her and President Joe Biden's costly policies. She contradicted virtually every other presidential candidate's opinion, saying, “You know, the time is over when everyone thought they could actually live the American dream.”

Goeglein told Secrets: “The narrative is that in 2024 the moral and social revolution of the '60s and '70s is having a direct impact on the institutions we care about most.”

“There is a direct bridge from the cauldron of the 1960s to 2024. That is what makes the book so timely, timely and relevant to our own time. If you want to understand the progressive “vision” and its roots, it is the ideas of the 60s. Remember, Kamala Harris was growing up in Berkeley at this time!” he added.

Goeglein noted that America has opened its eyes to “woke” policies in schools and workplaces. But as leading conservative speaker Mark Levin has said in his equally thought-provoking books on American politics, citizens must step up and participate—that is, fight back.

“The price of doing nothing is too high. If we do nothing, America will continue to move away from its freedoms, and as Ronald Reagan warned us, we will never see that freedom again,” Goeglein said in his book from Fidelis Publishing.

“Our country can become a United States again, not the divided states of America,” he continued, adding: “Although utopia is an illusion, American society was founded on the first principles embodied in our Declaration of Independence and the United States enshrined in the original Constitution.” has proven to be true and can be so again.”
