>I thought you meant he starred in it, which was a very odd (and none too attractive) picture. Was that really considered an oddity, even then?
That idea is too extreme for even the Heritage Foundation. It may stem from Lyndon LaRouche. Here they call themselves the Citizens Electoral Council and have radical looking (made me quite nostalgic) young people on their stalls. But when you look at their ideas they are a bit strange. They keep on talking about damming Australian rivers. I suggested that nearly all our rivers had been ruined and it was time to leave them alone to recover.
Anyway it is like the viewpoint that the British Royal Family controls the world drug trade.
"Although all of the groups, at their core, adhere to LaRouche's ideology, which holds that a "super elite"--including such disparate elements as the Rockefeller family, the British Royal Family, the Anti-Defamation League, the Soviet KGB, National Review, and The Heritage Foundation--controls world events, many are set up ostensibly as academic or charitable organizations. The use of various fronts has been among the LaRouche network's most successful tactics, enabling it to attract unwitting, well-intentioned citizens to its cause. While these individuals generally break any connection as soon as they realize the real nature of LaRouche's organizations, in some cases longer term,relationships are established."
