The Freedom Factor
October 10 — November 08
SYNOPSIS – DRAMA
Nathaniel Gorham, one of the signers of the United States Constitution, took a deep breath and said, “Suppose after we met at Philadelphia and drafted the Constitution in 1787, that the Constitution was never ratified.”
Bryce said, “But it was ratified!”
Gorham shook his head. “Not here it wasn’t.”
Bryce whispered, “It can’t be!”
“Well, it is. You are now living in an America without the Constitution,” Gorham said.
When Bryce Sherwood, rising aide to an influential senator in modern Washington, D.C., is appointed to help pass a bill that will do away with certain constitutional checks and balances, America’s Founding Fathers decide the time has come to take action. At first they try to persuade him through Nathaniel Gorham and through sharp but friendly debates with the captivating Leslie Adams. But when Bryce refuses to change his position, the Founding Fathers have only one option left—they transport Bryce into a world where the Constitution was never ratified.
In this strange world of oppression and fear, Bryce begins to learn the true value of the Constitution and the price of freedom. Will he be able to return to the real world to correct the mistakes he has made?
