No Constitutional Crisis?

by Robert Lederman

What a mess. Two candidates no one wanted in the first place

are now locked in a dispute over votes that promises to

invalidate the 2000 presidential election and perhaps the entire

illusion of fair elections in the United States. Whichever

candidate ultimately assumes office-supposing that one of them

eventually does-will forever be seen by a majority of

Americans as an illegitimate president.

Was this political disaster caused by simple incompetence, by

an exceptionally poorly designed ballot or by a last-ditch effort

by the Bush campaign-his brother Jeb is Governor of Florida-to

fix an election he was losing? The problem with blaming Bush

is that if his campaign fixed this election they certainly did an

extremely sloppy job of it that does Bush maximum harm

before he's even inaugurated. The Bush dynasty loses almost as

much status by winning in this way as if G.W. had clearly lost

to Gore. Does anyone benefit from this situation?

If your goal is to destabilize the present system in this country

and institute a coup, martial law or something else even more

drastic this could be a very effective first step. As

demonstrations erupt across the nation, recounts spread to other

states and elected officials begin to publicly choose sides things

are likely to get much more chaotic and devisive.

If a Constitutional convention or a nation-wide re-election is

called for it would open the door for all kinds of changes to

occur that would not normally have any chance of being

proposed due to the built in obstacles of our slow-moving

political system. The kinds of conflict these proposed changes

would cause in the streets and in Congress might well lead to a

civil war, a revolution or a coup.

Chaos presents the opportunity for drastic change. Who

traditionally uses artificially-created political instability and

de-legitimized elections to effect drastic political change? The

CIA.

The CIA-influenced media appears to have had an

astonishingly accurate picture of what the outcome of this

election would be long before it was finished. Did they really

use polls or was it a crystal ball?

Too Close To Call has been the predominate theme for most of

the past year. Perhaps America is really this evenly decided

between Democrat and Republican, Gore and Bush or perhaps

we have been set up for this fiasco over the course of the entire

election campaign. That a largely Jewish section of Florida was

seemingly tricked into voting for Buchanan-a candidate who

openly praises Hitler-is the kind of Nazi-inspired humor we

can expect from the CIA-which just earlier this year admitted a

profound 50 year connection to thousands of top level former

Nazis [See: UPI 9/20/2000 "CIA says Nazi general was

intelligence source"].

The only sure result we have right now is that both major party

candidates appear to have no mandate and the non-traditional

candidates have been proven to have either no substantial

following or, in the case of Nader, are being are blamed for

causing this whole mess. In other words, every presidential

candidate has experienced a dramatic loss of prestige and

legitimacy and America has no one who can even pretend to

represent the people in 2001.

There is one person who stands to immediately benefit from

this morass and that is President Clinton who has made it clear

he'd have liked a third term. If the election result is not

resolved by January, Clinton may remain as President

indefinitely. The Presidential orders he has signed for FEMA

and other contingency plans which involve a suspension of the

Constitution could go into effect for seemingly legitimate

reasons.

Clinton has long-established ties to both the Bush and

Rockefeller dynasties, to the CIA and to the most elite factions

of the New World Order. With Hillary winning the election in

New York the Clintons now appear, in contrast to the

presidential candidates, as beacons of stability and legitimacy.

No Constitutional crisis? Get ready for a bumpy New Year.
