J. K. Emmons was born in 1958 in the inner-city of Columbus, Ohio. A lifelong student of American history, he began to take a serious interest in the ever-widening tension and disparity between the better interests and protections of the American people versus the actions of those in government. And how these actions worked in total defiance and opposition to the clear language contained in the U.
S. Constitution. He wondered how such wise and learned men, as the framers clearly were, could ever establish a system of governance which would one day grow so powerful, and the citizenry so utterly diminished? Wondering, where exactly is there a constitutional stop or reset button when government simply refuses to abide by the wishes and concerns of the overall citizenry? Specifically, where precisely in the U.
S. Constitution is there any law or mechanism that actually binds those in government to the laws, will, and exclusive interests of the American people? Promise Land is the culmination of the author's years-long search for answers. Showing precisely how all this happened, and how the American people have ended up living under a system of governance that no longer listens, and they can no longer trust.
