Pendergast/Truman--

Thanks, didn't know about them.

You know there is good reason many are suspicious of people with that much power=money. Alot of 'poor'and 'innocent' people have suffered through our imperfect 'Justice System'. It makes one wonder if "JUSTICE IS BLIND" when it comes to the color of money.. To many people justice seems lopsided and bent toward a more favorable side, that has nothing to do with 'truth', but FAVORABLE IMPRESSIONS, and favorable impressions can be easily bought.

Nevertheless, I keep thinking of the statement in the GF Michael Corleone tells Kate, something to the effect...'you think politicians don't have men killed..Kate'?

PS, in LA history is was a known fact that the old KINGFISH, Huey P. Long, was a presidental rival to Roosevelt. Long was assassinated and alot of CYNICS of Roosevelt believed that he had something to do with that. Also, I still wonder who killed Kennedy???

As was the case, and still is the case, the men on stage (Roosevelt,Truman,Kennedy,Nixon,Bush,Clinton,Reagan,Bush) have nothing to do with it. The men behind the curtain control it all.

In Truman's case, they picked him to run for VP of the US with Roosevelt. (1)Roosevelt didn't like Truman and never would have picked him. Roosevelt knew this was his last time in office, he was diagnosed with a fatal sickness (which he kept quiet from the press, and never had acknowledged himself, but everyone knew) and he was pretty bad off, so when told they were going with TRUMAN, he simply said he really didn't care who they picked.

(2) 'They' had decided on Truman because all other choices had 'little problems'. 'They' had made their decision, and put it into works , before notifying TRUMAN. They got together and had a meeting, where they invited TRUMAN. They had spent several hours beforehand rehearsing a 'phone call' with ROOSEVELT for him to ask TRUMAN to accept.

When TRUMAN got there, the phone rang, Roosevelt gave his rehearsed 'speech' and TRUMAN accepted. ALL controlled by these men 'behind the curtains'.
