He says he doesn't believe in Bernays' theory, then displays many examples of how Bernays was able to change all of society using it. If it's not correct, if people are not manipulated by commercial and political propaganda, then how was Bernays able to do everything he did? Perhaps he is making a moral argument that people SHOULD NOT be manipulated. Not a controversial stance. It's hard to see how a right winger like Beck would be concerned with too much manipulative advertising.
Why don't you run for President of the United States of America ? You are a natural born citizen ? Your parents were both U.S. Citizens when you were born , and you have lived in the Country for at least 12 years ? Duty calls, Throw your hat in the ring and stop talking and start acting like the American you say you are. If the Good people do nothing, then they let the Bad guys run for president and nothing gets better . Ask George Washington, if he could just talk his talk !
