Maybe this should go out to FreeRepublic Chit/Chat land, but I find the connections of Bill Clinton and Mike Huckabee to the Rockefeller family quite interesting...

Win Rockefeller was the choice of Mike Huckabee to succeed him as Governor until it found out that he had a terrible illness that was life threatening...

I wonder if Mike Huckabee's sensational rise in the polls is due to some Rockefeller/freemason influence.

I might be wrong about all this, but it is more a case of people need to be aware.

The fact that Arlen Spector used the term Scottish Rite to save Bill Clinton from impeachment makes me leery of Freemasons...

There is no doubt that somebody is promoting Huckabee’s run and out of his own mouth it sure isn’t Jesus.

I don’t care for Mike Huckabee.

But I will tell you this...Win Rockefeller....both the father and the son....were fantastic people.

Without Winthrop Rockefeller there would be no Republican Party in Arkansas at all. Winthrop Rockefeller served as Arkansas governor reluctantly...every reform he tried to make was opposed bitterly by the Democratic machine. They started rumors about him, they called him names, they pulled every trick.....and in the end they drove him out of office a broken (but not bitter) man. He is a hero of mine.

Win Paul Rockefeller, his son, had one overriding interest....and that was the Boy Scouts. There are a lot of things a multi-billionaire can do on weekends and most of them don’t choose to dress up in Boy Scout uniforms and go to camporees. Win Paul would have been one of the greatest governors Arkansas ever had. He spent his own dime and scoured the country for economic development in Arkansas and never took any credit.

I drove to Little Rock to view Win Paul’s body lying in state. He and Ronald Reagan are about the only politicians I would make the long drive to honor.

My state is better off because of the (highly opposed) efforts of the Rockefeller family to try to establish a two party system here.

Four members of the American I.G. board were prominent American citizens and members of the Wall Street financial elite: C.E. Mitchell, chairman of National City Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; Edsel B. Ford, president of Ford Motor Company; W.C. Teagle, another director of Standard Oil of New Jersey; and, Paul Warburg, first member of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and chairman of the Bank of Manhattan Company.

Directors of American I.G. were not only prominent in Wall Street and American industry but more significantly were drawn from a few highly influential institutions. (See chart above.)

Between 1929 and 1939 there were changes in the make-up of the board of American I.G. The number of directors varied from time to time, although a majority always had I.G. backgrounds or connections, and the board never had less than four American directors. In 1939 — presumably looking ahead to World War II — an effort was made to give the board a more American complexion, but despite the resignation of Hermann Schmitz, Carl Bosch, and Walter Duisberg, and the appointment of seven new directors, seven members still belonged to the I.G. group. This I.G. predominance increased during 1940 and 1941 as American directors, including Edsel Ford, realized the political unhealthiness of I.G. and resigned.

Several basic observations can be made from this. First, the board of American I.G. had three directors from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the most influential of the various Federal Reserve Banks. American I.G. also had interlocks with Standard Oil of New Jersey, Ford Motor Company, Bank of Manhattan (later to become the Chase Manhattan), and A.E.G. (German General Electric). Second, three members of the board of this American I.G. were found guilty at Nuremburg War Crimes Trials. These were the German, not the American, members. Among these Germans was Max Ilgner, director of the I.G. Farben N.W. 7 office in Berlin, i.e., the Nazi pre-war intelligence office. If the directors of a corporation are collectively responsible for the activities of the corporation, then the American directors should also have been placed on trial at Nuremburg, along with the German directors — that is, if the purpose of the trials was to determine war guilt. Of course, if the purpose of the trials had been to divert attention away from the U.S. involvement in Hitler's rise to power, they succeeded very well in such an objective.

I’m not surprised!

The Clintons never do anything that isn’t calculated to help them. Hillary’s Socialist/Marxist theories have the potential to destroy America.

The Clintons got into the WH the first time by DIVIDING the repubs - and I’ve always believed Perot knew he was being used by the Clintons to divide the repub party.

WE CANNOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN AGAIN!!!

While Huckabee may have been a Baptist preacher - he’s not strong enough to be President. Just having a relationship with God is NOT ENOUGH! You have to be worldly-wise - and I believe that’s scriptural.

I’ve recently met with some long-time friends in ministry (20 years) who have proclaimed they were sent to DC (some time ago), and were to pray for the Presidency - and they believe God revealed to them that He had already chosen the MAN.

While some of you may not believe that .. that’s okay. I believe it.

The KEY for us is not to get dragged off the cliff by a deceiptful group (Clinton, Inc.), and fall for a candidate who is really not good for America.

Again .. the Clintons will do anything to WIN .. and we must not allow ourselves to be deceived again.

Fast forward to the 1970s...(Arkansas at that time was controlled by Winthrop Rockefeller).

Hardly.

Gov. Winthrop Rockefeller got wiped out in the 1964 election, swamped by the anti-Goldwater vote.

At that point, Arkansas returned to its traditional role, as a Democrat fiefdom.

To claim that Winthrop Rockefeller Sr. controlled Arkansas politics in the early seventies isn’t vanity, it’s insanity.

If the national debt was zero, and trade deficit was zero, would anyone complain about the Federal Reserve?

The dates here do not hold up. Winthrop Rockefeller was soundly defeated for reelection by Dale Bumpers in November 1970. Bill Clinton was for Bumpers, not WR. WR died in February 1973.

The Watergate investigation was barely getting underway, and WR had been dead at least two months.

There were reports that WR and Nelson rarely spoke: that Nelson looked down on WR for moving to AR.

Huckabee was not completely a Win Paul backer either because Win Paul favored abortion. Win Paul for governor in 2006, had he lived, was in the situation of Mitt Romney trying to convince people that he was somehow also “pro-life,” when the record showed otherwise.

After Win Paul’s tragic death, the party turned to Asa Hutchinson, who was defeated soundly for a second time statewide (the first was against Bumpers in 1986). The Hutchinsons did to the AR GOP what GWB has done to us nationally. Joseph Farah wrote on Feb. 4, 2008, that GWB has “euthanized” the conservative movement.
