PROLOGUE TO THE AVERAGE
AMERICAN MAN,
A NOVEL
Heroes aren't always geniuses or supermen. Sometimes
they are ordinary people. This story is about a quintessential average man who is
given a chance to save the world. He is a white guy, 5ft. 9in, 179lbs.,
American, age 38, middle class, heterosexual , married with 2 children, some
college but no degree, not quite physically fit, Type B personality,
Independent/Democrat. In other words, he is the average American. He is someone
who is in the Nations majority and is living a life of quiet desperation. He
says he believes in God but like the majority of American men his age, he does
not attend church.
Our hero’s name is Tom
Thomson. He owns a 3 bedroom home in Adrian, Michigan. He has been a
successful insurance salesman for 13 years but regrets not finishing college.
He thinks he could have accomplished more if he had not joined the Air Force
right out of High school. He makes as much money as Lawyers and Doctors but
does not feel fulfilled. He is looking for an opportunity to change his
occupation to one that is more rewarding. He would like to be a professional
who is working at making the world a better place. But he is not sure what that
job would be. One day, Tom gets a phone call from a mysterious man who says, “I
can help you become the man you want to be.”

Hmm, the Tsar thought the Average Man was a closet Republican afraid to come out of the closet because his wife would beat him up.

In your case, that may be true. School Teachers are usually fanatical Democrats! Too bad there are more Democrats than Republicans. Unfortunately, majority rules our nation. We would be better off with you as our benevolent dictator
