well thank you mrs. bowler and thank you ladies and gentlemen it was pretty
0:10
depressing listening to those previous speakers fact I'm amazed that I see smiles on anyone's faces it is yes very
0:19
depressing story America is in serious trouble and I'm going to be talking
0:27
today about how we got that way and then at the very end what we can do about it
0:32
so let's get on with the real story I think the good place to begin is by
0:37
telling you a little apocryphal story about show-and-tell day in the first
0:44
grade in school the teacher had told the children to bring something to class
0:50
that was interesting and new so they could stand up and show it to the class and tell them all about it so they all
0:57
did most of them brought toys but little Johnny brought a kitten well naturally
1:03
the kitten was more interesting in the long run than most of the toys so it didn't take long before the whole class
1:09
was focused on the kitten and the question came up was this a boy kitten
1:14
or a girl kitten well there was a heated discussion on this everybody had an
1:20
opinion but nobody really knew how to answer the question so with just opinions opinions opinions until finally
1:26
the teacher asked the class that does anybody know how you can tell the difference between a boy kid and then a
1:33
girl kitten and silence fell across the
1:38
classroom no one had a clue and finally Johnny raised his hand he
1:44
says I know the teacher got very concerned with that one and she asked cautiously says well Johnny how can you
1:50
tell tell the class he said well my dad says we live in a democracy and so in a
1:57
democracy you vote on everything so let's vote on this issue and we'll find out the truth so you know right away
2:04
this was an American school because it's true isn't it that all of us certainly myself included have
2:12
been taught from a very early age that we live in a democracy it's one of those words that we need to get very serious
2:20
about defining but got this general impression that democracy means a majority rule and that's wonderful so
2:27
the majority should decide everything and the more serious the issue then the more need there is to have the majority
2:33
you know express its view well the
2:39
purpose of my presentation is a little bit upstream I'm going to be saying basically that this although it's a
2:46
cherished American concept it's a very dangerous one if you don't think it
2:52
through and don't put limitations on it it's a very dangerous concept and as a
2:57
matter of fact it is the concept that is being used against the American people
3:03
and people all over the world to their own detriment to put them in fact into a
3:10
condition of bondage a condition in which they elect their own dictators and
3:19
feel happy about it because they did it to themselves that's what I'm going to
3:26
be talking about now as you probably know the title of this presentation is called the Quigley formula so let's take
3:36
a look at that what is this thing the Quigley formula and the first step is to
3:42
answer the question who is this man Quigley now I say this man Quigley
3:51
because the name is karol quickly and sometimes people think that's a woman well it's not it's carroll quigley that
3:58
we're talking about who was he's deceased now but he was a very well-known professor of history who
4:06
taught at Georgetown University and while he was there he had a very famous
4:13
student by the name of William Clinton and Clinton studied under quickly and
4:20
a favored student and spent some personal time with him and admired quickly 27 years later when this student
4:32
was given the nomination for president of the United States in his acceptance
4:38
speech he mentioned professor carroll quigley in his speech and paid homage to
4:46
him after he was elected president of the United States he made at least two
4:53
public appearances of which I'm aware where again he mentioned professor
4:58
carroll quigley and thanked him for the influence that this man had had on the
5:04
political awareness and thinking of himself president clinton so there was
5:11
no question about it that that Quigley was Clinton's mentor now why is this
5:17
significant it's significant because professor Quigley taught the
5:23
conspiratorial view of history as explained by the conspirators themselves
