We’ve allowed our country to be led far away from the pursuit of excellence per the timeless principles of God and our Founding Fathers.

Hi, I'm Cris Smith, a concerned American citizen like most of you citizens/voters who will read these comments.

Several years ago I ended a 40 year manufacturing career to dedicate the rest of my life to helping our nation return to our proper course in all critical arenas. As a first step on that new journey I completed this book with the intent of getting it into as many hands and minds as possible for decades to come.

Its purpose is to help readers improve their ability to find and enable right leadership, as I’ve defined that, in all walks of life. It focuses on the political world to do that. I’ve shared multiple timeless lessons to illustrate how our great country has been led astray for many decades, and to define the essential nature of those “leaders” who we the people have allowed to do that.

To raise awareness about our multi-decade pursuit of the path toward pestilence, I’ve used this book to exclusively create and define the emerging new nation of Sociotonia, the Sociotonian “principles” used to guide it, and the Sociotonians who choose to pursue this path as leaders and enable it as followers. This book and any future editions I create are the only legitimate source that defines those original terms.

Sociotonia as defined is dedicated to pursuing proven paths toward pestilence in all critical arenas of life. I examine the ever present loathsome Sociotonian leadership from multiple angles; and the Allegiance Hierarchy they’ve adhered to for all of recorded history. I share how the mass of Sociotonians who willingly follow and enable them have been steadily transformed into government dependent “welfare serfs” and how to reverse that.

The book also shares timeless guiding thoughts on hard lines we need to draw and useful actions we need to consistently take in multiple critical arenas to return to and truly maintain our intended path toward excellence. And in doing so, to create and preserve our republic as The New United States for generations to come.

We made political leadership progress as a nation in the critical 2010 election. “We the people” elected many who appear to be true right political leaders as I defined those in this book. Time will tell.

At best though, I hope most of us agree that 2010 was just a first step. We now have some potential to slow and stop some of the multi-decade movement toward pestilence in many areas of society and government; and to return to the pursuit of excellence.

But “we the people” have much ongoing work to do if we are to truly preserve our nation. If we allow the 2010 housecleaning and attention to be a one time event versus an ongoing way of life, how can we avoid quickly reverting back to the path toward pestilence?.

Whether or not you have further personal interest in owning a copy of this book, I hope you’ll consider networking this site to others, or buying a copy as a gift for others as a leadership selection guide to help them more consciously choose between the ever present paths toward excellence or pestilence that lie ahead.

In all cases, God bless you and yours. I look forward to working side by side with those of you who are also dedicated to ending Sociotonia, and creating and preserving The New United States!

"Enjoyed Sociotonia (1) vs. The New United States commentaries. I think it should be read by most people so that all would better understand what's going on in this country."

"Have lots of ammunition for my letters to the editor. I will be using quotes from your book this coming year to counter the Democratic hoard that lives in this community."

"Very thought provoking. It made me see things clearly in certain areas, and ultimately it made me angry at a lot of the things the present government is trying to shove down our throats while trying to make us think their way is the best way."
