Presidential Election 2000: ‘The Fall of Ozymandias’  

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

“For many leading circles in the world today, the question is no longer, ‘Who is going to be the next President of the United States?’ but, ‘What will the next President, whoever he is, become?’” Lyndon LaRouche told a Dec. 12 seminar inWashington, D.C. that was simultaneously webcast. “The problem is that ... the greatest crisis in modern history, at least in the past two centuries, is hitting the United States and the world right now,... and this crisis is sitting on theWhite House steps, sitting like the ugliest monster ... you ever saw, waiting to greet the next President when he arrives at the White House door. The problem is that, at present, the United States, its political system, is almost totally unprepared to deal with reality.”
