Anglo-American domination. The Trilateral Commission emerged at the same time that the
Rockefeller-Kissinger interests perpetrated the first oil hoax. Some of its first studies were devotedto the mechanics of imposing authoritarian-totalitarian forms of government in the US, Europe, and (^)
Japan to manage the austerity and economic decay that would be the results of Trilateral policies.
The Carter Administration was very overtly a Trilateral Administration. Popular hatred of Carter
and his crew made the Trilterals an attractive target; their existence had been publicized by Lyndon
LaRouche's newspaper New Solidarity during 1973-74 iRockefeller campaign. Reagan promised that he would change all that, but his government was alson the context of a highly effective anti-
dominated by the Trilateraloids.
Bush was also a member of the Alibi Club, a society of Washington insiders who gather
periodically to assert the primacy of oligarchism over such partisan or other divisions that havebeen concocted to divert the masses. Bush had also joined another Washington association, the
Alfalfa Club, with much the same ethos and a slightly differrent cast of characters. Bush was clearly
a joiner. Later, in 1990, he would accept a bid to join Britain's Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St.
Andrew's in Scotland as the ninth honorary member in the history of that august body. This was
also a tribute to George Herbert Walker, a past president of the US Golf Association, and toPrescott Bush, who was also president of the USGA.
As we saw briefly during Bush's senate campaign, the combination of bankruptcy and arrogance
which was the hallmark of Eastern Liberal Establishment rule over the United States generated
resentments which could make membership in such organizations a distinct political liability. Thatthe issue exploded in New Hampshire during the 1979-80 campaign in such a way as to wreck the
Bush campaign was largely the merit of Lyndon LaRouche, who had launched an outsider bid in the
Democratic primary.
LaRouche conducted a vigorous campaign in New Hampshire during late 1979, focneed to put forward an economic policy to undo the devastation being wrought by the 22% priussing on theme (^)
rate being charged by many banks as a result of the high-interest and usury policies of Paul Volcker,
whom Carter had made the head of the Federal Reserve. But in addition to contesting Carter, Ted
Kennedy, and Jerry Brown on the Democratic side, LaRouche's also noticed George Bush, whom
LaRouche correctly identified as a liberal Republican in the Theodore Roosevelt-House of Morgan"Bull Moose" tradition of 1912. LaRouche also noticed that a majority of the wealthy "blue-blood" (^)
families who dominated New Hampshire political life were Bush backers. These were the families
who could-- and often did-- organize ballot-box fraud on a vast scale.
During late 1980, the LaRouche campaign began to call attention to Bush as a threat against whichother candidates, Republicans and Democrats, ought to unite. LaRouche attacked Bush as the
spokesman for "the folks who live on the hill," for petty oligarchs and bluebloods who think that it
is up to them to dictate political decisions to the average citizen. These broadsides were the first to
raise the issue of Bush's membership in David Rockefeller's Trilateral Commission and in the New
York Councfor many voters a symbol of Bush's plutocratic and arrogant claim on high public office as someil on Foreign Relations. Soon Bush's membership in the Trilateral Commission became
kind of a "birthright," quite independent of the judgment of the voters.
While on the hustings in New Hampshire, especially in the Connecticut River valley in the western
part of the state, LaRouche observed the high correlation between preppy, liberal Republican blue-blood support for Bush and mental pathology. As LaRouche wrote, "In the course of campaigning
in New Hampshire during 1979 and 1980, I have encountered minds, especially in western New
Hampshire, who represent, in a decayed sort of way, exactly the treasonous outlook our patriotic
forefathers combatted more than a century or more ago. Naturally, since I am an American Whig by
family ancestry stretching back into the early 19th century, born a New Hampshire Whig, and a
