I haven't read the book (although I have read a small exert where he describes "The System"...kind of interesting to read) but I can't see how you can justify folding. Depending on the stacks at the table (how big of a leader was I) and my position, Id probably reraise, sometimes a big amount sometimes all in myself. This forces everything outside of AA and KK (including AK, unless the stack is very short) to fold... if you get unlucky and are up against AA or KK you may take a huge hit, which is why other stacks and positions would play into my decision.

If I had AA here, 70% of the time I'd flat call, and see if one other person may come along for the ride (or maybe even reraise with a hand like AQ, KQ etc to try and get me out so he has dead money in the pot and only one opponent) then reraise all in. The other 30% Id make a big reraise just like above -- that way people won't take my reraise in a situation like this as a strong but not great hand.

Default Raise to isolate

How much would depend on a few of the factors mentioned, but I'm going to raise here nearly every time.
