Question: Are you convinced that you are the only real candidate that the Democrats could have, or should have?

LaRouche: Yeah, absolutely.

As I was going to say, the issue is, that since the rise of Venice, the enemy of humanity, has been the Venetian model of imperial maritime financial power. So, the struggle in Europe, has always been the attempt to get a true nation-state, under which the sovereign nation-state controlled the destiny of its people, freed from the grip of what we call today, independent central banking systems. And since the 15th-Century Renaissance, the struggle of Venice has been to destroy the emergence of the sovereign nation-state.

So therefore, what you have, throughout the world today, in the United States, and throughout Europe, you have organizations which are best described as modelled on the Venetian fondi, and some of them are even Venetian organizations. [Lyn has to repeat, because of a poor connection.] Throughout the world today, you have institutions, which are recognized by the Italian name of fondi. These things--for example, typified by the case of Lazard Freres, which was key, in France, as the pro-Nazi organization, inside France, during the period of the last war. These were typical of the consortium of private, Venetian-style bankers, who created the Bank for International Settlements, and who were behind Hitler. Lazard Freres, ironically, is a key part of the fascist forces, inside the United States today.

These bankers, who have been known since the 1930s, in particular, as "Synarchists," were the forces behind Hitler, and are the forces behind Cheney and Company, in the United States, today. This is what is behind the Chickenhawks; this is what is behind the neo-cons. This is what is behind Cheney, Rumsfeld, and so forth. And also Blair, in London. And their friends throughout Europe, such as the supporters of Transparency International, who are among the leading fascists in the world, today.

So therefore, what is now going on between me and Cheney, is crucial for understanding the answer to the question. I have enjoyed a certain degree of success, in moving toward the destruction of the Synarchists and Cheney.

All right, if I do not succeed, then the immediate effect would be, the world will go into a New Dark Age, under the influence of decisions made by the Synarchist bankers, behind the scenes, today. If I succeed in my effort to get rid of Cheney, to get him out of government, we will beat that force. That is why I am so relentless and uncompromising, in my present policies. I am determined to save civilization, and I know, my leading action in this, is essential to save civilization. And, the problem that I face, is the lack of qualified rivals--I don't have qualified rivals, who, if I were to die tomorrow, could continue the kind of action, indispensable action, and role that I play.

And that's what is on my shoulders, and it's a very carefully calculated and accurate estimate of the present world situation.
