That's the problem: peop..."Remember." That's the problem: people don't know history in the first place, people who think the sun goes around the earth, the earth, 6,000 years old. Glenn Beck is now selling his own especial history, dividing the patriots into 13 sections which he and his 9/12 "Patriots" will visit, teach, organize. To what end?
