History to unveil “Men Who Built America” in October

September 6, 2012 by Barry Walsh

The Men Who Built America, an eight-hour series from Stephen David Entertainment that examines the stories of five of the United States’ most iconic businessmen and innovators, will premiere on History October 16.

The series looks at the lives and times of Cornelius Vanderbilt, John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, J.P. Morgan, and Henry Ford – men that “created the very concept of the American Dream,” according to History. The program will chronicle how these five men transformed the United States into a global superpower in the span of 50 years.

Contemporary business leaders, including Steve Case, Mark Cuban, Carly Fiorina, Alan Greenspan, Ron Perelman, T. Boone Pickens, Charles Schwab, Jack Welch and Steve Wozniak will also be interviewed throughout the series.

When the U.S. cable net first announced the series in May of 2011, it said the miniseries would “shine a spotlight on the influential builders, dreamers and believers whose feats transformed the United States, a nation decaying from the inside after the Civil War, into the greatest economic and technological superpower the world had ever seen.”

Executive producers for History are Russ McCarroll and Paul Cabana. Stephen David is executive producer for Stephen David Entertainment.

It worries deeply, as an American, a father, and a human being that this “Men Who Built America” is even being aired. These men were raised by degenerates, especially Rockerfeller, to grow up and destroy the very foundation in which this country was built on. Everything they did, at the time, was not only unethical, but it was also illegal and fueled every social ill from the 1850s to our modern day. From wars, illegal surveilence of citizens, to poverty, etc. These are the men responsible for our historical problems, as well as the whole worlds modern problems. I am disappointed in History Channel for this. Why don’t you air a series called “The Men and Women Who Saved America From Being Completely Destroyed”, based on Emma Goldman, Berkmen, Sacco and Vanzetti, the W.Virginian miners, the Pullmen emplyees, etc and base it out of Paterson,NJ and focus on the majority of people of this era who were pro-union workers and didn’t even have bread to eat because of these lowlife degenerates such as JP Morgan, who is responsible, single handedly for initiating the Great Depression?
