Barbara, I finally got some reaction from you. I tried email and that didn't work. As for the drawing of Atlas, Rand doesn't own it, or the word Objectivist, but I may remove that from the cover. I have tried to get help with editing this book, and I do not make any claim that I am in Rand's league of writing. I am definitely not!! But I did write the book over a very long period of time after being heavily influenced by her. So much so that in the last chapter, which is the inaugural address of the newly elected president, he reveals something not mentioned in the story--he is an atheist, his veep is a Jew, and he regards Rand as the second greatest American behind Washington. In the Author Note, he also tells the reader that he, (my) opinion is that if Rand had had a seat at the table when the founders wrote the Constitution, she would have insisted they require elected officials to obeythe Constitution. Of course, Barbara, you knew her and I did not. Perhaps I am wrong about that. But I do believe she had one of the greatest minds in history. This book will probably go nowhere. It should be on Amazon soon, because I have been unable to get past gatekeepers at publishing houses and literary agents to actually see if it has any merit. I believe it does. It is not a long book. The story takes place very quickly, even though it is a forty-year period. It is not intellectual. I am not an intellectual. But it does explain in plain language a great many things that are and have been wrong with American government. One of those is this, and it is in the book, even after I have stated that I regard Washington as the greatest American. Who was the first person to violate the Constitution. It was Washington, by adding words, (so help me God) to his Oath of Office. Also on the cover is a single line. The Constitution does not mean what it does not say. At any rate, Barbara, I believe Rand does not own the right to use Atlas. In the text of the story, the great Atlas, America, is shrugging. I assume from what you have written that that cannot rightly be part of the text, but assuming has gotten me in trouble many times in my long life. I am 70. So I will continue and say that the word, fountainhead, not capatilized, is also there and so is Ayn Rand. My thanks to everyone for replying. This is the most response I have ever received in any way regarding this book, titled, January 20th. I thank you all and hope you will buy a copy when it is ready. Please respond to this, Barbara, and anyone else who has something to say. I am not good with these things, which is why it is located where it is. I just did not understand and do not understand where it should go. Having heard of Barbara I decided to put it there. I did try to get some attention from your ex, Barbara, and was transferred to Leigh, who said that she sent mail to you about what I was looking for but you have not responded until now on OL. Thanks. If anyone has an idea on where I should put info on the book, please let me know. And once again, thanks from an old man.
