Summary:

Beck makes the case that when you're traveling in the wrong direction, slight course corrections won't cut it. He exposes the idea of "transformation" for the progressive smokescreen that it is, while maintaining that a return to individual rights, an uncompromising adherence to the Constitution, and a complete rethinking about the role of government in a free society is the only way forward.

The past is prologue -- The crime of the century -- The plan -- Conclusion: Our story continues.
