Dennis Prager is one of my favorite talk radio hosts and his program is one of the most valuable on the air. Still the Best Hope is his first book in 12 years and in it he explains what makes America truly exceptional. One of the themes he talks about often on his program is what he calls the American Trinity: Liberty, In God We Trust, and E. Pluribus Unum. These three principles form the basis of the American value system that Prager believes the world must adopt in order to defeat evil. I should say now that he doesn't mean to say that American culture should be exported to the rest of the world.
Prager places a high emphasis on establishing clarity on the issue rather than trying to reach agreement. He is very meticulous about defining his views and those on the opposite side of a debate on a particular issue. Regular listeners know that he goes to great lengths not to exaggerate anything although he does make generalizations wherever reasonable.
This interview on Uncommon Knowledge gives you the highlights of Dennis Prager and serves as a great introduction to him. You will know what he's about and where he's coming from on the issues.
