Benjamin Disraeli, First British Prime Minister:
"The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes."
--1844
"The governments of the present day have to deal not merely with other governments, with emperors, kings and ministers, but also with the secret societies which have everywhere their unscrupulous agents, and can at the last moment upset all the governments' plans."
--1876
Woodrow Wilson, U.S. President:
"Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it."
--1913
Woodrow Wilson described Edward Mandell House as his "alter ego" (his other self).
Edward Mandell House wrote "Philip Dru: Administrator", where he stated that he was working for "socialism as dreamed of by Karl Marx."
Philip Dru: Administrator (Paperback) by Edward Mandell House
"I have unwillingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated in the hands of a few men.
We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated governments in the world...no longer a government of free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of small groups of dominant men."
Henry Ford, Industry Giant:
"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning."
"The one aim of these financiers is world control by the creation of inextinguishable debts."
John F. Hylan, Mayor of New York (1918-1925):
"The real menace of our republic is this invisible government which is like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state, and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under cover of a self created screen. At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as international bankers. The little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes. They practically control both political parties.
--1922
Joseph Kennedy, U.S. Ambassador, Father of JFK and RFK:
"Fifty men have run America, and that's a high figure."
--1936
Curtis Dall, FDR's Son-in-Law:
"For a long time I felt that FDR had developed many thoughts and ideas that were his own to benefit this country, the United States. But he didn't.
Most of his thoughts were carefully manufactured for him in advance by the Council of Foreign Relations-One World Money Group.
The United Nations is but a long range, international banking apparatus clearly set up for financial and economic profit by a small group of powerful One-World revolutionaries, hungry for profit and power.
The One-World government leaders and their ever close bankers have now acquired full control of the money and credit machinery of the U.S. via the creation of the privately owned Federal Reserve bank."
-quote from his book FDR: My Exploited Father-in-Law
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, U.S. President:
"The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the large centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson."
--1933
James Warburg, Rothschild Banking Agent:
"We shall have world government whether or not you like it...by conquest or consent."
--1950
Felix Frankfurter, U.S. Supreme Court Justice:
"The real rulers in Washington are invisible, and exercise power from behind the scenes."
--1952
William Fulbright, U.S. Senator:
"The case for government by elites is irrefutable. "
--1963
Barry Goldwater, U.S. Senator:
"The Trilateral Commission is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States.
...they will rule the future."
--1964
Carroll Quigley, GU Professor:
"The powers of financial capitalism had another far reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole."
--1966 from Tragedy and Hope
David Rockefeller, Trilateral Commission Founder:
"We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years.
It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But the work is now much more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto determination practiced in past centuries."
--1991
Henry Kissinger:
"Today, America would be outraged if UN troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow, they will be grateful!
This would especially be true if they were told that they were a outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated that threatened our very existence.
It is then that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil.
The one thing man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by a World Government."
--1991
Kissinger: The Secret Side of the Secretary of State (Paperback) by Gary Allen
Strobe Talbott, Fmr. U.S. Deputy Sec. of State:
"In the next century, nations as we know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single, global authority. National sovereignty wasn't such a great idea after all."
--1992

CFR memberships of the Candidates
Democrat CFR Candidates:
Hillary Clinton
John Edwards
Chris Dodd
Bill Richardson
Republican CFR Candidates:
Rudy Giuliani
John McCain
Fred Thompson
Newt Gingrich
Mike Huckabee (just affiliated)
The mainstream media's self-proclaimed "top tier" candidates are united in their CFR membership, while an unwitting public perceives political diversity. The unwitting public has been conditioned to instinctively
deny such a mass deception could ever be hidden in plain view.
* * * Presidential Candidate & Congressman Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich, and Mike Gravel are not members of CFR. These 3 are the only ones that work for the people, instead of being controlled by the secret societies that are working toward a one world government that will take away our rights and turn our country into a North American Union. * * *
