LaRouche Presents Foreign
Policy to Press in Paris
Lyndon LaRouche gave this press conference on Dec. 5, introducing journalists in Paris to his Presidential campaign. "The United States is in a crisis," he said. "The habits of the Baby Boomers, the 50-year-old people, will no longer control the politics of the United States. The poor, the people in the lower 80% of family-income brackets, are going to be brought back into politics. And the leadership of people in the 18-25 age-group, is going to change, and be the spearhead of changing politics in the United States. "In the meantime, the whole blasted system is coming down, so it's going to make it a new time. The present world system of politics is ended, one way or the other, for better or for worse: You might have idiocy in the future, but it won't be the same kind of idiocy we had in the year 2000."
