Rick Santorum says colleges ruining America; plans 2016 campaign book

[Geee]

Washington Examiner:

Former Republican presidential candidate, conservative Rick Santorum, is edging closer to another bid, declaring war on organizations like liberal colleges he says are ruining the country, and agreeing to pen a 2016-focused book aimed at blue collar workers once dubbed “Reagan Democrats.”

 

Regnery Publishing told Secrets that they will release Santorum's new book, “Blue Collar Conservatives,” in the spring.

 

“Santorum will address the plight of America’s working families today. A champion of the manufacturing sector, he outlines how a Republican Party dedicated to hardworking families, local communities, and small-town values can assemble a winning coalition,” said Regnery of the upcoming book.

 

The former Pennsylvania senator hit a populist tone in his 2012 GOP primary bid, and with his new book he will pursue that further as he nudges the Republican Party to foster support among middle- and low-income workers.

He has taken that campaign on the road recently to conservative groups, including a recent speech at the Ronald Reagan Ranch operated by the Young America's Foundation, during which he found a new target -- liberal colleges.
