LYNDON LAROUCHE: Well, I'm glad to see you all arrived here safely. And we hope you'll leave safely, after what I have to tell you.
You know, it's time to get serious. And we have some old fogies—you know what an old fogy is, somebody over 45 ... and under 62—who are rather pessimistic about life. You know, if they don't get instant rewards. It's sort of a case of a mass commitment to ejaculatio praecox: It's called a Baby Boomer. Instant gratification. And instant frustration.
So, but they tend to be pessimistic about our situation. And they obviously, most of them are draft dodgers, and therefore don't know much—in their careers—and they don't know much about—. Like Cheney, Cheney's a draft-dodger. He's 63 years old. He's just one year over the official Baby-Boomer age, and he dodged the draft. His wife got pregnant to help him dodge the draft. He was about to be wh-t-t-!, and she got pregnant. Miracle, she pulled a miracle.

Lyndon LaRouche on the Jack Stockwell Show
May 3, 2004
"...There is a lot of controversy going on inside the Democratic Party right now, as well as a lot of Republican influence, but you're not going to hear too much of it in the media, because the name of LaRouche is a hiss and a byword to the international banking cartel, and they do not want this man's politics, his ideas, or his thinking, but especially his ideas, getting out there into the public sector."

President Ulysses S. Grant Opens — The Philadelphia Centennial Exposition
Just as dawn came on May 10, 1876, the bell in the tower of Philadelphia's Independence Hall began to ring, and it was immediately echoed by the Liberty Bell and all the church bells of the city. They rang out the news that a century of American independence was about to celebrated with the opening of Philadelphia's Centennial Exhibition. It was an international exposition of progress in the arts and sciences, the first ever held in this country, and so President Ulysses S. Grant was joined at the opening ceremonies by Emperor Dom Pedro of Brazil, representing the other nations which had sent their discoveries and products to Philadelphia.
At the end of the American Civil War in 1865, many of the world's governments had assumed that the United States would undergo a long period of economic and psychological exhaustion before recovering from the devastating four-year conflict. But under President Abraham Lincoln, the states loyal to the Union had embarked upon such an expansion of scientific and technological innovation, that when the war was over, the United States had been transformed into a world power.
The wonderful consequences of following the principle of the general welfare, extending its benefits to many generations beyond, was never more evident than at the Centennial Exposition. One hundred and twenty-eight years later, we can still look back and see the solid basis of our "modern" society being formed, as reflected in the discovery of new scientific principles, and even many of the same products that we rely upon today.
The exposition had been planned over a period of three years, with Centennial Commissioners from each state serving on the planning committees. The exhibit was spread over 236 acres in Philadelphia's Fairmount Park, and consisted of 190 buildings, the largest of which, the Main Building, covered 21 acres of ground. The seven major buildings offered exhibits on Mining and Metallurgy, Manufacturing, Education and Science, Art, Machinery, Agriculture and Horticulture. Thirty-one foreign nations sent exhibits, and by closing day on Nov. 10, almost 10 million people had walked through the automatic, self-registering turnstyles which had been set up at 106 different gates.

The Uniquely Needed Doctrine for U.S. Economic Survival Today: Why 'Fiscal Austerity' Is Insane
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
This policy statement was released by the LaRouche in 2004 Presidential campaign committee. April 25, 2004
A Foreword: How Your U.S.A.Was Ruined
It is time to explain some basic facts of economic life to our citizens. If the majority of the reigning Baby-Boomer generation of today, might prove to be so foolish as to reject my warnings, what I write here should be passed on to both the young adults of the 18-25 age-group, and, hopefully, their progeny, too. In the worst case, then, the outcome ofmy effort might thus assure that something good for mankind's future generations might survive out of thenew dark age of humanity which today's presumably leading choices of U.S. Presidential candidates threaten, more and more, to bring down upon us now.

Candidate Presents 'The Keys To Peace' for Southwest Asia
... Lyndon LaRouche's address to a meeting in Washington, D.C. on April 30, broadcast over the World Wide Web. Only by putting forward LaRouche's doctrine for development and peace in the region, in his name, can the United States bring peace to Iraq and Southwestern Asia, he said. No other political figure in the United States—not the President, not John Kerry—has the stature, or the trust, of the political forces in the these nations, to restore peace.

Mont Pelerinite Walpurgisnacht In Moscow
by Rachel Douglas
Some of the world's most radical apostles of bankers' dictatorship, clad in neo-liberal slogans of 'free enterprise' and 'globalization,' descended on Moscow for a two-day conference on April 8-9. Sponsored by the Cato Institute, it was called 'A Liberal Program for the New Century: the Global View.'
Inflation, Bond-Market Plunge Hitting Together
by Paul Gallagher
The breakout of inflationary fire into prices of all kinds of commodities and services this Spring, in all the G-7 economies but particularly in the United States, has broken the coverup of the underlying, raging money-supply and asset price hyperinflation pointed to by Lyndon LaRouche alone among political leaders, during the recent years' claimed 'no-inflation economy.' Those fraudulent claims have been silenced by soaring prices of especially gasoline and food. But the hyperinflationary surge is across the board. ...

A few days after Lyndon LaRouche issued his groundbreaking U.S. policy statement for Southwest Asia, 'The LaRouche Doctrine,' support started to build up in the Arab world and Europe.

by Jeffrey Steinberg
