'So as you skim through the very public list of over 4000 members of CFR, what you notice is an extremely broad cross section of "policymakers", "journalists", "students", and "interested students". What you don't notice is a common goal or agenda among any of them. And that is the whole point. CFR is an independent organization with a goal of providing a better understanding of foreign policy decisions facing the United States.'

Wait a minute.

Are we to believe that the likes of Katie Couric and Warren Beatty have ANYTHING to contribute the such a nebulous description the CFR?

And as to "providing a better understanding of foreign policy," WHO exactly is obligated to listen to them? And why should they have ANY influence on America's foreign policy?

Additionally, is there such a thing a "democratic voting" on ideas proposed by "leading" members?

THE one and ONLY common thread of the 4000 strong just may very well be a consensus of diluting America sovereignty "for our own good" -- elitism at its worst -- and as a front group for a New World Order.

Last time I checked Karie Couric was a journalist. A lousy one, but most are. And besides being a crappy actor, Warren Beatty has served as an adviser on several Senatorial campaigns and almost ran for President. So yes, they both fit into the nebulous description of who can belong to the CFR. But you are proving my point. Do you think either of those asshats are grand participants in a campaign to form a new world order?

"WHO exactly is obligated to listen to them?"

Absolutely no one. Not a single soul. Again, you are proving my point.

"And why should they have ANY influence on America's foreign policy?"

Who says they do?

"Additionally, is there such a thing a "democratic voting" on ideas proposed by "leading" members?"

I'm not sure what you mean here, but since the CFR doesn't issue policy statements, there really isn't anything to vote on.

"THE one and ONLY common thread of the 4000 strong just may very well be a consensus of diluting America sovereignty "for our own good""

Tell that to the dozens of military officers in the CFR that have dedicated their lives to defending our sovereignty.
