If Hillary or McCain are elected, bringing their decades corrupt and/or warmongering presidencies to power, just remember you could have voted for Obama.

In your dream world, do you actually believe someone who is NOT CFR could ever be elected?

If there is a "sucker" on this thread, it is you.

Do you ever just take a step back and listen to yourself, then take the time to think about what you've said?

You're admitting you're playing a crooked game but somehow you honestly believe you are going to straighten out the outcome from the outside of rigged machine.

Maybe you're just not as bright as I pegged you before...

Because either HRC will steal the nomination at the convention or they'll put a bullet in Obama before/after he gets it. In either event you're going to see riots that'll make the Rodney King deal look small-time, a possible declaration of martial law, possible rule by presidential decree under emergency powers, and major, major incursions of the ancient Chinese curse.

very plausible that this is the reason for BO's candidacy...

Well, I was very much encouraged by the Jewish media attacks on him a couple of weeks ago. I also find it encouraging that the lefty Zionist Jews, like Alex Bennett, Lynn Samuels, etc, etc, hate Obama. It goes without saying that the righty Zionists hate him. I think it goes beyond the typical Jewish disdain for Shwartzes, and speaks of a real insecurity about the sincerity of his fealty oaths to Israel. After all, if anyone knows insincerity, it's the Zionists.

lol, all true - it's a fine line he must walk

You prefer Henry Kissinger? ZBig was Carter's foreign policy adviser, there are far worse choices.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zbigniew_Brzezinski
Brzezinski also became a leading critic of the Bush administration's "war on terror." Some painted him as a neoconservative because of his links to Paul Wolfowitz and his 1997 book The Grand Chessboard. Brzezinski wrote The Choice in 2004 which expanded upon The Grand Chessboard but sharply criticized the Bush administration's foreign policy. He has defended the paper The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy. He has been outspoken in his criticism of the 2003 invasion of Iraq and the subsequent conduct of the war.

Who would you pick?

This is a very good speech, but it has the typical Obama signature to it.

So...what to do now?

Invariably, Obama leaves that out.

Wrong, not because they're friends.

Rather, because Kucinich is a Commie Fruit Loop that hit a couple notes just right but still had no place even being considered on a ticket with Ron Paul...you know that, though.

I have friends that are bigger losers, politically speaking, than you or Dennis K combined, ari.

i will give credit where credit is due.

It is going to be interesting to see how the media handles the speech since the Clinton campaign started accusing the media of Obama bias 3 or 4 weeks ago. The Clintons have deep and powerful media ties especially in the NY media, and even managed to get SNL to do a long skit regarding the bias two weeks ago (Hillary made a "surprise" guest appearance), and then last week a long opening skit portraying Obama as inexperianced and inept.

McNuts is a warmonger but the CFR-D people aren't!?

THIS IS TOO GOOD!!!!

According to a variety of sources, the following presidential candidates are either members of one of the groups or have strong ties: Hillary Rodham Clinton, Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, Barack Obama, John McCain, John Edwards, Fred Thompson, Joe Biden, Chris Dodd and Bill Richardson.

Mike Huckabee, though not a member, spoke to the CFR in September. Since then, his political star has risen to the point that he has become a top-tier candidate.

So often throughout recent history it has been the case.

Ever since Democrat Adlai Stevenson challenged Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1952 and 1956, the odds have significantly favored those with membership in the elite groups.

In 1960, both John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon were members.

In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson was not a member. Neither was his opponent, Barry Goldwater. But Johnson had already staffed his administration with plenty of insiders.

In 1968, it was Nixon versus club member Hubert H. Humphrey.

In 1972, it was Nixon again against Democratic Party CFR member George McGovern.

In 1976, it was CFR Republican Gerald Ford losing to CFR Democrat Jimmy Carter.

In 1980, Ronald Reagan was not a member, but his running mate, George H.W. Bush, was. So were both of his opponents – Carter and independent John Anderson. Assuming office, however, Reagan quickly named 313 CFR members to his team.

In 1984, another CFR member, Walter Mondale, was nominated by the Democratic Party to challenge Reagan.

In 1988, CFR member Bush took on CFR member Michael Dukakis.

In 1992, Bush was challenged by an obscure governor from Arkansas, Bill Clinton, who won the "trifecta" by being a member of the CFR, Trlateral Commission and Bilderberg Group. He was also a Rhodes scholar – another favored credential of the worldwide elite.

In 1996, Clinton was challenged by CFR member Bob Dole.

In 2000, CFR member Al Gore ran against non-member George W. Bush, but his running mate, Dick Cheney, was.

In 2004, Bush was challenged by CFR member John Kerry.

www.alipac.us/article2888.html

The CFR most certainly has more influence than any of us would desire, or put up with if we could help it.

But, IMO, a reading of the above would leave anyone to conclude that the listing presents politicians falling within a range of full-hearted CFR'ers down to suck-ups to the elitists. Given that, sad as that may be, I refuse to relinqish my right to particate in the process.

Frankly sir, and meaning no offense, it is also my opinion that thosee that do fall within a spectrum also .... from zany to childish.
