Robert Welch, Founder of The John Birch Society, predicted today's problems with uncanny accuracy back in 1958 and prescribed solutions in 1974 that are similar to Tea Party positions today.

  • This is not from 1958, it has to be from at least the Nixon era.

  • @LanterRogue A portion of it was originally presented in Dec. 1958 at the founding meeting. The taping of it came in 1974 at a JBS Council Dinner as he revisited what he said in 1958. What you are watching is indeed from 1974, but originally presented in 1958.

  • Amazing, this guy saw this 35 years ago, and people today are bashed over the head with this and still cannot see it. Help us all.

  • All ten points have come to pass. #9 is the hammering of the eternal War on Terror via Orwell's "WAR IS PEACE" doublespeak.

  • Ron Paul reminds me of Robert W. Welch Jr.

  • Americans were warned. History dictates this will only end after millions of people are dead.

  • Tea 'Party' is a sprout off the same trunk.

  • FBI worried that JBS activities would inhibit responsible anti-communist activities. JBS would discredit anti-communism.

  • isolationist far right "survivalist" who probably knows nothing and has no respect for any other country especially if inhabited by "locals"!

  • And they say it cant happen here,just take a look a round,from Oregon 14.

  • @BenkaiDebussy

    Because based on what Marx laid out in his "10 planks" of what makes a Communist country, the US is practicing Communism. I guess "we" (the people) understand and it is you who do not.
