Probably be welcomed welcome to FOX & Friends.

Hey Brian good morning for -- -- -- state before I get sort of hear them here's Scarlett be private citizen and not represented the DO -- anything in the views here mine and don't represent anything from seal community site.

Got to country.

Well but you know like said the book is about America freedom of the constitution ends about defending it in overseas we fought for things like that you know for the home front now -- here.

Back in America and I want to fight for that still what's wrong what's wrong with this -- today as you so concerned to write a book.

Well there's there's a lot of things wrong and -- be fixed but first and foremost think when you get her out of federal spending under control.

We got it reminds us bailouts for companies.

-- right now our government is also putting politics in front of we the people.

So if we can start getting there.

Act together as far as who is the priority here rather than politics that be a great thing in the last thing -- American exceptions and is being destroyed I mean.

Were being indoctrinated to settle for mediocrity to -- that it's okay to be tenth place you know in gym class now little Johnny is too fat.

We're forced to dumbed down to his level and play badminton.

Hard work and being the best biggest strongest fastest everything.

And I'd feel today that that's get away from us and it's being were being settling for less.

And as you look around you think the tone of the country is is changing.

So would you hope to do what your plan of action to change things that you see them right now in the country you grow up and most importantly we need to -- that instill accountability in America again and that's the biggest problem is there's no accountability.

And we need to bring America back to the greatest country the world's ever known and that's what our forefathers intended.

When they sign the constitution we can do that.

If we stick to our constitutional values and our original founding principles that you're a few things it stood out in the book out of control spending you mentioned addiction to foreign oil and in -- treating our children into mediocrity which you just mentioned.

Let's go back to spending for a second because -- spending is so out of control.

The defense has already paid a price we -- -- your mind that we sacrificing our national security because about a controls spending on things like entitlements.

Well absolutely I mean if you have another country that owns the majority of or large portion of your dad China then.

What happens -- -- yes exactly if what happens if they want their money back that puts us a pretty bad spot.

Because of the book -- -- being sealer completely separate but.

It's been -- with one thing I have learned throughout the military in the military -- done a great job and you know teaching its service members.
