Is America the Greatest?

Sue Davis spent more than 20 years working in Silicon Valley with Fortune 500 companies, C-suite executives, branding, marketing, and business strategy. She is the founder of Geeks Marketing, Politically Yours, and the author of Is America the Greatest?

Sue approaches America the same way she approaches business: by looking at systems, incentives, messaging, emotional disconnects, and the long-term consequences of greed, division, distraction, and power.

She believes America’s problems are connected — and so are the solutions.

We didn’t get here overnight. We slid here over decades.

Too often Americans become exhausted just trying to survive life — work, bills, family, healthcare, stress, and uncertainty — and politics starts to feel dirty, exhausting, or like someone else’s problem. Meanwhile, the most organized systems keep gaining power, influence, and control — and yes, many of those systems are driven by billionaires increasingly controlling housing, banking, groceries, shopping, media, technology, with politicians willing to do their bidding.

Bernie Sanders, Robert Reich, Heather Cox Richardson, Timothy Snyder, and many others have warned in different ways about the same danger: America slowly sliding toward oligarchy, authoritarianism, and minority rule while ordinary people look away.

But this book is not about blame. It’s about recognizing the pattern before the web closes tighter — and remembering that change still happens when ordinary people participate, organize, speak up, and refuse to surrender the country they love.

No, politics wasn’t Sue’s first choice. But she’s come to realize politics shapes how everyday Americans live, work, struggle, and dream — and that all of us need to participate if America is going to be a great nation.

America belongs to We the People — not the powerful few.

Let’s fight for the next 250 years together.
