"The little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes. They practically control both parties, write political platforms, make catspaws of party leaders, use leading men of private organizations and resort to every device to place in nomination for high public office only such candidates as will be amenable to the dictates of corrupt big business."

"They connive at centralization of government on the theory that a small group of hand-picked, privately controlled individuals in power can be more easily handled than in a larger group among whom there will most likely be men sincerely interested in public welfare."

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
