In the Arena: Good Citizens, a Great Republic, and How One

In the Arena: Good Citizens, a Great Republic, and How One Speech Can Reinvigorate America

A vigorous call-to-arms to reignite American citizenship at home and restore American power abroad, using the timeless truths of Teddy Rooseveltâ€™s iconic â€œMan in the Arenaâ€ speech, by the Fox News contributor and decorated Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran.

Pete Hegseth makes an impassioned and experiential argument for how Teddy Rooseveltâ€™s articulation of â€œgood citizens,â€ â€œequality of opportunity,â€ and unapologetic U.S. leadershipâ€”â€œgood patriotsâ€â€”can renew our imperiled American experiment and save the free world, in this fascinating, first-hand challenge to elite progressivism, ahistorical foreign policy, and status-quo politics.

Despite contention surrounding Teddy Rooseveltâ€™s legacy, Hegseth argues that the Rough Riderâ€™s exhortation serves as a timeless wake-up call for our Republic. Hegseth resurrects Rooseveltâ€™s famous â€œCitizenship in a Republicâ€ addressâ€”best known for the â€œMan in the Arenaâ€ quoteâ€”as a roadmap for addressing the massive challenges facing America today. In order to rejuvenate what makes America exceptional, we must unapologetically get back into Rooseveltâ€™s arenaâ€”as engaged â€œgood citizensâ€ at home and powerful â€œgood patriotsâ€ in the world.

Bolstered by gripping personal experience, Hegseth channels Teddy Rooseveltâ€™s words to make a case for turning Americaâ€™s highest ideals into action through the gritty virtues of citizenship, the dogged pursuit of equal opportunity, and aggressive commitment to winning the wars we fightâ€”including the Iraq War. An exceptional American experiment was entrusted to â€œaverage citizensâ€ in 1776 and has been perpetuated by every generation sinceâ€¦until now. If we wonâ€™t fight for America, then what will we fight for? And if not now, then when? Get in the arena!
