The Man Who Should Have Been President

June 14th was the 250th anniversary of the founding of the Continental Army (later the United States Army), an institution established to guarantee republican freedom and nation building. This week's LaRouche Show affords the viewer an opportunity to conduct a crucial thought experiment addressing the tragic nature of the United States over the past decades. As you watch LaRouche's remarks delivered in October 2003 as a candidate for president, reflect on how dramatically different the United States and the world might now have been had our nation and its institutions allowed LaRouche to become president in 2004, or even earlier.

As any good student of classical tragedy knows, there comes a "punctum saliens," a point of no return, where the inability or unwillingness of the main character(s) in the play to abandon their fatal flaws results in disaster for all. America's tragic toleration of years of censorship and slander against the man who should have rightly become one of our nation's greatest presidents has today brought our planet to the edge of nuclear annihilation. As our punctum saliens approaches, LaRouche's full exoneration today provides a unique pathway out of this horrific tragedy into a new paradigm of peace and prosperity.
