This is a story about hope. Hope for families, hope for the United States, hope for everyone. It tells how an ordinary guy from Philadelphia develops an idea to revolutionize the economy and social order of the United States. It is so crazy, he's afraid to tell anybody about it, but he writes it down and ships it off some of the most influential people in the country. He waits for a reaction. He gets silence. Frustrated, he seeks validation for his idea in the halls of academia. He picks up a valuable ally, an erudite scholar looking to make his mark outside the ivory towers. The two have a roadmap to a new world, but no driver. They are casting about, mulling their options, when providence provides just the man they didn't know existed. A man looking for a mission, leading a people forgotten by time. The three join forces, a white Irish Catholic, an arrogant but brilliant black professor and a smoldering, fiery Latino union leader. An unlikely trio, but each bring something unique to the table.
So they have a team, but there is no game scheduled. No one asked them to come up with a revolution, and no one knows any of them. This is pre-Internet, there is no "going viral." The men needed a powerful sponsor, someone willing to stick their neck out and validate the idea. A famous family member steps up and provides a necessary introduction, to one of the United State's leading spokesman, who's decision will kill or push the idea forward.
While this is going on, they are dogged by a psychotic neo-Nazi looking to use the group for his own delusional ideas. The Nazi in turn is tracked by a Jewish freedom fighter who hunts for still-living members of the old Reich. The women in the men's lives add love, support and complications. This stew simmers as the characters play off on another, trying to bring about a new dawn for the United States. And when they do, it will be unthinkable.
