โThese are the times that try men's souls,โ wrote Thomas Paine after 11,000 men abandoned George Washington's army following a series of humiliating defeats to the British in the fall of 1776.
Paine understood that words could inspire or destroy. Knowing what was at risk when Washington's volunteers' service contracts expired on Dec. 31, Paine used his rhetorical skills to help salvage the American Revolution.
Like the patriots fighting two centuries before us, the success of American conservatism has ebbed and flowed. The battle is never-ending. Like the great Ronald Reagan once said, โFreedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.โ That reality and commitment to service, inspired Mark Robinson to get into politics.
It's now inspired him to write a book to show his fellow conservatives how they can effect positive change in their communities.
Robinson, North Carolina's first black lieutenant governor, ascended to elected office later in life. His decision to run for lieutenant governor only came after an impromptu speech before the Greensboro City Council where he passionately defended the right to bear arms.
After defeating well-oiled Republican campaigns in a crowded primary, Robinson prevailed convincingly against North Carolina Democrats who attacked him relentlessly.
Robinson's book โWe Are the Majority: The Life and Passions of a Patriotโ is now available to select audiences before its release to the general public on Sept. 27. In it, Robinson describes his harrowing upbringing as โa poor black kid from the wrong side of the tracksโ to becoming the first black lieutenant governor of North Carolina.
Robinson's views congealed after reconciling with his mother, who instilled in him the values of faith and morality after she became a born-again Christian.
Those lessons left a lasting impression on Robinson and gave him the strength to refuse to apologize for being an โunfiltered conservative culture warriorโ when Democrats threw everything but the kitchen sink at his campaign.
As Robinson likes to say, โI don't care what these communists say, I don't care what these socialists say, I don't care what these blue-haired, โwoke' freaks say โฆ America is the greatest nation on Earth, and it's all because of God.โ
Robinson's ability to speak with voters, not down to them and insight into the pulse of North Carolinians shows how he connected with ordinary people despite not being a seasoned political veteran.
Instead of his past and unorthodox background being a liability, those experiences made him sympathetic, relatable and inspiring to a broad coalition of voters.
When asked why he wanted to tell his story, Robinson explained โI'd like to tell you my story, because I want you to know what I'm doing for North Carolina and will do for it in the future with God's help, that you can do for your hometown and state.โ
Like Thomas Paine, Mark Robinson understands it's not too late for America. But he can't spark change on his own. Words can inspire, yes. However, only action can ensure future generations of Americans will be left better off than those that came before them.
