Ezra Taft Benson, former Secretary of Agriculture in the Eisenhower Administration.
Ezra Taft Benson met with USSR's Nikkita Khrushchev in 1959 and relates this present day warning:
"As we talked face-to-face, he indicated that my grandchildren would live under Communism. After assuring him that I expected to do all in my power to assure that his, and all other grandchildren, would live under freedom, he arrogantly declared, in substance:
'You Americans are so gullible. No, you won't accept communism outright, but we'll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you'll finally wake up and find you already have communism. We won't have to fight you. We’ll so weaken your economy until you’ll fall like overripe fruit into our hands.' "
