Are you following me here? Can you tell where this is going next?
How many "policy-makers" do we have in this country? 435? 535? 600+? See where this is going next? If you decide that the 435th most influential member of the House of Representatives is a "policy-maker" then anybody that can influence that representative could be argued to have (in your words) "power, or influence to change anything in regards to law, politics, government policies etc". Therefore, if that particular congressman believes every word of the now defunct World News Weekly to be the final authority on a policy issue, then you could argue that a defunct tabloid has power or influence to change law, politics, government policies, etc.
As an organization, the CFR only has the power or influence of publishing ideas. The extent to which those ideas may or may not influence any policy-maker is anybody's guess. The CFR does not have any authority or legislative or policy-making power. I don't know how much more clearly it can be stated.
Sorry, you are just clueless. The CFR is evil, more than anyone can imagine. I have it on good authority from a friend with the Barvarian Illiuminati (I assume its the Barvarian, he has a BMW) that the CFR did a group buy of the latest Harry Potter book AND got it 2 days early.
Pure evil I’d say...
