Something to seriously consider about Hillary, Obama, Edwards, etc.
Does your candidate belong to the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR)? What is the CFR? Why does it matter? If you don't know, you better find out! Members include both good and bad characters IMHO, but the CFR's intentions are clear: working for increased globalization. Before a flamewar breaks out, please note that I'm not accusing any of the candidates of anything wrong except for endorsing the flawed goals of the CFR. Membership is clearly endorsment, whether they publicly admit it or not, the alternative being that they sought membership merely for access to power.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_on_Foreign_Relations#Notable_current_council_members

Members include:
Bill and Hillary Clinton
Barack Obama
John Edwards
John Kerry

Dick Cheney
Mitt Romney
John McCain
Rudy Giuliani

Members also include many large corporations.

The CFR cross-pollinates with many other globalistic organizations including the notorious Bilderberg Group (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilderberg_Group). Evil stuff, IMHO.

1. If you want to build bridges, you have to get near the water.*
Or, in this case, the swamp.

2. Here's a good quote:
"We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries."

David Rockefeller At the Bilderberger Meeting of The Trilateral Commission, June 1991, Baden, Germany

3. If what you say is true, then all we're doing in elections is watching political theater
That is terrifying.

7. corporations
If a candidate wants to win, they probably need corporate money. To get it, they have to prove to the business community that they are a good "investment". The CFR, Trilateral Commission, Bilderberg Group, etc. are good places to fish for this money. These groups are made from multinational corporations (fortune 500 types). Candidates have to kiss the ring and submit to be allowed to act in the interest of great powers. That's just how our system works.

9. Cross search with the Trilateral Commission.
No one comes to power with out the
hand of either the TC or the CFR.
And both would like nothing better than
to see the rest of us die.

11. I think you're right.
No one does come to power without the nod of the TC or CFR. Thanks for the kick, BHN.

People should realize that there is a master class of very powerful rich people who really run the world. I'm talking multi-generational wealth that makes Bill Gates look middle class. Presidents and senators are middle-management for this master class. Large multi-national corporations also belong to this class.

No one gets hired for middle-management without the nod of the master-class. One way to get approval is to join the CFR and give speeches or write articles in Foreign Relations about how you support the aims of the CFR, which is just a way of saying that you will serve the masters.

You are also right that these groups do not have in mind the best interests of the common man.
