Nearly every person elected as president of the United States since then and nearly every opponent has belonged to a secretive, globalism-oriented organization known as the Council Foreign Relations.
Some presidents and their challengers have belonged to additional clubs of internationalists the Bilderberg Group and the Trilateral Commission. Running mates, too, more often than not have had ties to the groups.
That the groups exert enormous influence on public policy is indisputable. What is disputed is whether such groups are, as adherents and members argue, just discussion forums for movers and shakers, or, as critics have long alleged, secret societies shaping a new world order from behind the scenes. On that last point at least, no one could challenge the critics: All these groups operate in considerable secrecy, away from the scrutiny of the American public.
Regardless of how one characterizes them, the fact that virtually all presidents belong to the same secret clubs prompts the author of a new book to wonder if the 2008 election will also be a contest between globalist insiders. Judging from the list of frontrunners of each party, Daniel Estulin, author of "The True Story of the Bilderberg Group," may be on to something.
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.

Oh gawd, here we go again...
“Oh gawd, here we go again...”
Maybe, but is it true?
A 13 trillion dollar economy with several means of control of the growth or stagnation of the same and everything is left to mere chance?
please.
For example, is there any difference between Rudy and Hillary?
Why would you suppose that is?
Conspiracy a more comforting thought, huh? Here’s something to counteract it...

is there any difference between Rudy and Hillary?
Hillary has hotter mistresses.
Even Bill is jealous.
If secret societies control anything it’s because we’ve given them control. To strip them of control we have to do is vote our conscience.
Hillary aide Huma Abedin -- Bill must want her so bad
It’s really the freemasons /s
Nonsense, from Niccolo Machiavelli to Goebels to even Kim Jung Suck’s North Korea, the crowd is nearly always wrong and esaily manipulated into believing whatever.
And it’s not a conspiracy if it is out in the open and being chatted about in public now is it?
This is a recommendation for Fred Thomson or Duncan Hunter.
I hear they eat children
She is a hottie, I thought Hilde had some long time assistant from back in the Billary days, one that never appears in public?
The Federal Reserve, a private bankers’ consortium, bought Congress in 1913, and controls our government, because it issues all the money.
OK, This is all fine and dandy, so membership in the Trilateral Council on Foreign Bilderburgers One Worlder Elitist Socialist Society is the Presidential Union Card. It is obvious that after 9/11 this has changed just a little bit. Herself the First of Charlatan is the poster-wench for this crowd this time around.
It’s always more comforting to believe “someone” is in control. The alternative is scary for many people.
There is that, and there are things like the FCC, Rush, Hannity etc can be shut down in 30 days or less, oil prices are manipulatable through the dollar, and as much as I despise the Koz Boyz, there was the Hildebeast and Markos kissing her pinky ring.
From Rush to Markos, if one is an influential media member, one is going to be co-opted.
Another example, look how well the Economy has done for the last 4 years, yet it is not mentioned at all (230 times in 06 Iraq War was in the 100,000’s) and now the only mention is “Housing bubble bursts”.
Hmmm, how can that be.../s
Depends what you mean by “Control”.
For another example, Sarkozy only started really being pro America about two months before the elections when it was apparent that we were not leaving Iraq anytime soon.
The French lost tens of billions in oil contracts when we overthrew Saddam, why would the French (ELF etc) suddenly and quickly “make nice” with us?
The petro euro is just as real as the petro dollar...naaah, tin foil hat stuff....
Fred’s in the CFR.
Along with George Soros, Madelaine Allbright, Jimmy Carter and a rash of American hating scum.
Nothing like a thread on the NWO.
Have to run out, but a ping for later.
