LaRouche’s keynote kicked off three days of meetings of the LaRouche movement in the U.S., including activists from at least 35 states of the Union, Canada, and various interna- tional guests from Eastern Europe,

Morris is gone, Pennsylvania Governor Ridge is seriously hurt, DNC Chairman Don Fowler is leaving soon—these events should all tell you something, LaRouche said at the start of his keynote. We got them out, he said, just as we destroyed Ollie North back in 1994. And now, we’re going to use the same method to finish off George Bush.
