John Ringo's national radio tour for national disaster preparedness

By Ian Randal Strock

August 1, 2008

Author John Ringo, in support of his new novel, The Last Centurion, is embarked on a national radio tour, during which he'll be discussing "Who will rescue this country in case of a global disaster?" and explaining "how your vote can keep us from catastrophe." He expands on that provocative intro to say "The 2008 presidential elections are just around the corner. As we saw with the hurricane Katrina and 9/11, whoever is at the helm of this nation does affect disaster response. Imagine a true, global catastrophe happened in the United States. Which of these candidates would guide us safely out of harm's way, and which is more likely to make terrible, if well intentioned, decisions that further lead this country into disaster?"

You can tune in to hear Ringo in the coming days:

4 August at 6:20PM on Sioux City's WNAX-AM 570 (live for 20 minutes)

9 August at 9:20AM on Tampa's WFLA-AM 970 (live for 20 minutes; simulcast on the web)

9 August at 9:30PM on Denver's KNUS-AM 710 (live for 12 minutes; simulcast on the web)

week of 11 August on Boston's WNTN-AM 1550 (20 minutes, taped; simulcast on the web)

18 August at 3PM on Kansas City, Missouri's KCTE-AM 1510 (live for 30 minutes)

He also has tentatives scheduled the week of 25 August on the nationally syndicated "Issues Today Network" and on Sacramento's "Issues with Walt Shaw". For updates, check out this page.

an absolutely essential discussion long overdue in american public discourse. after katrina, we can't be sure that fema and state/local disaster teams are prepared for a localized crisis, let alone something that affects the entire usa or the world. in fact, we can be pretty sure that the government isn't prepared for a major crisis and isn't actively doing anything about getting prepared.
