by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
Lyndon LaRouche addresses a LaRouche PAC webcast from Washington, D.C. on May 1. “What I’m about to announce to you, and follow up by a presentation on the subject, will produce incredulity in a lot of people around the world and around the country, especially inside the United States,” he promises. “But it’s all true, and I shall indicate to you what some of you may not have taken into account, or didn’t know about the nature of the world situation, and therefore, you would have doubts about what I’m about to tell you.” Dialogue with LaRouche: Questions and answers from the webcast, covering U.S. relations with Russia, home foreclosures and unemployment, youth organizing, blocked Baby Boomers, crises in Africa, and many other issues.
