Learn how we can make America a Republic again

Explore how Equity, Liberty, and Morality give us a framework to transform America into a practical utopia of prosperity and dignity.

As a millennial who came of age in the shadow of 9/11, the Great Recession, and a fractured political landscape, I wrote Reclaiming Our Republic out of both frustration and hope. This book is my call to all Americans—especially those who feel politically homeless—to imagine a better path forward.

Drawing on history, philosophy, and firsthand experience, I offer a bold yet pragmatic framework for reforming our political system, reviving civic trust, and restoring a sense of shared national purpose. Whether you’re disillusioned by partisanship, inspired by grassroots movements, or simply yearning for a country that works again—for everyone—this book is for you.

I believe the American experiment isn’t finished. It’s evolving. And it’s up to us to reclaim it.

What Experts Are Saying

Pathway from Oligarchy

Jack Cullinane provides us with a practical and insightful work that blends theory, fact, and analysis to assess America’s current political state. Jack uses this analysis to outline the most likely path forward for the United States to escape oligarchy and move towards a better society based in logic and equity.

I appreciate how practical and logically structured it is, presenting ideas for better change in the United States that are not entirely unrealistic as some other works tend to do. I especially enjoyed the part on gun legislation as you mention how it’s not likely that guns could be completely eliminated but greater legislation is needed.

“Your passion for our country and your earnest desire to bring about positive change in our political system is inspirational. Maryland and the United States are both in need of energetic young thinkers like yourself, and the thought that you’ve put into your blueprint for the future is impressive”

 Congressman Kweisi Mfume MD-7 (D)

We live in an era of dysfunction and disillusionment. The institutions we once trusted now seem gridlocked, apathetic, or corrupted. But beneath the noise, a growing number of Americans—across generations and ideologies—are asking the same question: Can we fix this?

In Reclaiming Our Republic, Jack Cullinane delivers a clear, inspiring, and fiercely pragmatic call to action rooted in one powerful belief: it’s not too late. This book is both a manifesto and a roadmap—offering, according to Political Analyst Freya Zank, “the most likely path forward for the United States to escape oligarchy and move towards a better society based in logic and equity.”
You’ll discover:

  • The foundational framework of objective morality and equity leadership—and how these principles can guide policymaking beyond left vs. right.
  • Why democracy still matters—and how to make it work for the people again.
  • Clear, courageous proposals on the economy, media, healthcare, education, foreign policy, and more.
  • A sharp dismantling of toxic ideologies and false binaries—including an honest critique of both parties.
  • A vision of American identity rooted in multiculturalism, secular morality, and shared dignity.

Whether you’re disillusioned, independent, or simply tired of the noise—this book is your invitation to build something better.
