A great tragedy could have been avoided through the appropriate development of political alertness, which would have protected President Kennedy's life, his programs for the nation's development, and the future of the nation and humanity as a whole. Instead, without this defense, as The New Federalist writes, "Kennedy's investment tax credit for industrial development; his face-down of J.P. Morgan's steel price increase; his order for the Treasury to print non-Federal Reserve U.S. currency; his Apollo Moon landing program; his commitment to overwhelming U.S. technological and military superiority, combined with cooperation with the Soviets for Third World development, not 'balance of power' wars; his decision to take retired General McArthur's advise and get out of the Vietnam trap: All of these lit the British fuse for his murder."*(as above p.29)
Mankind should learn this lesson of history, and learn it well, for the tragedies that are looming on the horizon are infinitely greater than those that the murder of President Kennedy had enabled. It is still possible for President Clinton to turn the ship around on the basis of those measures that President Kennedy had aimed for, and those he had failed to take to protect himself and his nation. President Clinton certainly has the political authority to shut down the U.N. and the I.M.F.; shut down the Narco-Banking operations; shut down media monopolies; cancel the ban on DDT and CFC production; take the dangerously sick and bankrupt financial system through an orderly bankruptcy reorganization before it disintegrates in a wave of chaos; take down the free-trade weapon that was originally created to bankrupt the U.S. in reprisal for its Declaration of Independence; rebuilt the nation on a foundation of federal (not oligarchic) financial control and credit; restart the industrial, farming, and infrastructural development of the nation and the world; restructure education for the discovery of fundamental principles; restart the scientific and technological drive for energy development in nuclear 'breeder' and 'fusion' technologies; promote world-peace through world-development rather than genocidal games of power-balance manipulations.
To a certain degree, President Clinton has taken a few significant steps in his opposition to I.M.F. austerity looting and British oligarchic policies of promoting underdevelopment. These were minute steps, however, though they have roused immediately the largest wave of assassinations attempts that was ever unleashed against a U.S. president.
The question arises, however, is the American public, or that of any other nation, depended on a strong, intelligent, and courageous president or leader for its welfare and possibly its very existence? Must it wait for the miracle-president to emerge and lead the nation by the strength of a personal commitment to the fundamental principles of reality? The answer must be NO!
The power of democracy.
There is no reason why a population needs to look for a strong leader. This very notion that a nation needs a strong leader instills political apathy. The responsibility for a nation's welfare rests with itself. This is the principle of democracy, which provides a channel for the authority of individual political alertness to assert itself. No force prevents a people from not educating itself in historical developments, in discovering the fundamental principles that support human civilization, and to become alert to the forces that work contrary to them and promote slavery, poverty, and death. No one forces a people to subscribe to the oligarchy's monopolized papers and to sell its consciousness to the cleverest bidder. No one forces a people to be impressed at election time by the glitter of the campaigns that hide an empty vessel, or the glowing rhetorics that barely hide the candidate's poverty within. Nobody forces the electorate not ask the weighty questions about the candidate's stand on fundamental principles by which the candidate's political alertness is revealed, or his allegiance to the oligarchy comes tight as a paid agent. Just ask the candidate about his or her enthusiastic support in shutting down the U.N., the I.M.F., free-trade, oligarchic financial control, financial derivative gambling, currency manipulation, the DDT and CFC ban - if the answer is no on any topic, the candidate reveals a severe lack of understanding about the fundamental principles that support human existence and the advance of civilization. This lack makes the candidate unfit for office as an agent to serve the nation. Also ask about his or her enthusiastic support for national banking, infrastructural development, scientific and technological development, nuclear energy development, the need to upgrade education, the need to revitalize farming, and the need for a classical moral cultural development - if the answer is no on any point, the candidate is not willing to transact the natural laws of physical economy, on which human existence depends, and is therefore not qualified for employment in the public's service.
