The author was a noted American antisemitic conspiracy theorist, Holocuast denier, white supremacist, propagandist, and writer (and one-time disciple of Ezra Pound) once described as "a one-man organization of hate". Mullins would lend research assistance to the anti-communist crusader Senator Joseph McCarthy in the early 1950's while working for the Library of Congress, and over the course of several decades would write for a variety of anit-communist, antisemitic, pro-Nazi, and white supremicist publications. I realized that I was on the verge of revealing the final apostasy of those who had dedicated their lives to bringing down the American Republic. I found this last, and most damning proof, not in some obscure protocol of the conspirators, hidden in some dusty recess, but in the imposing building of our National Archives. The secret was found in the language of our most sacred text, the Constitution of the United States of America. Did this discovery mean that, deep within the provisions of the Constitution, the Founding Fathers had ignorantly, or perhaps, even by design, included some trick phrase which would later become the Achilles Heel of our country? Not at all. If the Founding Fathers had erred, it was on the side of zeal, because they went to such great efforts to make certain that no door was left open, no possible avenue of betrayal inadvertently left unguarded, which might give aid and comfort to those vipers who, working from within or from abroad, would overlook no opportunity to end this Republic, and thus deliver the coup de grace to mankind's most noble experiment in freedom. In the entire Constitution, there are few phrases which, despite the frenetic efforts of demagogues and renegades, could lend themselves to such gross misrepresentation. However, I did find, in one phrase of this great document, words which reflected the highest aspirations of the Founding Fathers, a phrase which occurs in the Preamble to the Constitution, and which appears again in Article I, Section Eight. This phrase is "the general welfare". In this book, we have a dual purpose, first to explain how ruthless men adopted this phrase to further their great conspiracy against America, and second, the techniques which they employed to incorporate this phrase as the very keystone of their Welfare State.
