On January 20, the United States will once again witness one of its great ceremonial institutions. On that day, notwithstanding some immanent revolution, the country will witness the peaceful transfer of power from President Clinton to the still unchosen president-elect.

The author states, "The horror of lethal injection is also kept shamefully secret. Three shots are administered. The first shot paralyzes the muscles. This way, the face won't reflect that the internal organs are actually going through armageddon and to the witnesses it looks "peaceful."
