Welcome, fellow Patriots. I’m Ron Kern and I have a deep passion for the remarkable era of the American Revolution.

​

That passion is personal. My own family legacy reaches back to the Revolutionary War, and a 5th great-grandfather of mine, Peter Kern, served during America’s fight for independence. Years later, my own journey in the Navy further deepened my appreciation for the freedoms secured by our founding generation.

​

History isn’t boring, it’s all about the way it’s told. My mission is to bring America’s founding story to life with energy, clarity, and heart, making it both educational and enjoyable for all ages. You’ll hear that enthusiasm in every podcast episode and sense it throughout my writing.

​

As you explore Patriot Power, you’ll discover a growing library of episodes, videos, articles and resources designed to immerse you in the spirit of the Revolution. It has been a joy to see these materials used by families and homeschool groups across the United States.

​

My hope is that this website becomes a true home for anyone who loves America’s founding, a place to deepen your understanding, uncover overlooked heroes, and celebrate the courage of the men and women who shaped our nation.

​

Thank you for being here. I’m honored to share this journey with you. So take your time, explore, and join me as we keep the story of the American Revolution alive.

​

Meet Peter Kern, Ron’s 5th great-grandfather, who fought for American independence during the Revolutionary War.
