Howard Dean Takes British Part: Says Democratic Candidate Must Be Decided by July 1

29 Mar 2008

March 28 (LPAC)--Democratic National Committee Screamer Howard Dean is declaring that the Democratic Party should choose its nominee by July 1, rather than at its National Convention called expressly for that purpose.

On hearing this report, Lyndon LaRouche asked: Is Howard Dean in bed with Nicolas Sarkozy? Our investigations show that all the operations against Hillary Clinton are run from London. Everything goes back to London.

Under Dean's rules, Franklin Roosevelt would never have been President, and the United States would never have recovered from the Depression. FDR was chosen on the fourth ballot at the 1932 Democratic Convention, and in his Presidency re-established the principle that the American Constitution is written for the motive stated in its Preamble: to secure the general welfare. For this, the British viscerally hate him.

Dean, on ABC's "Good Morning America" show today, called on the 800 superdelegates, including the 350 supposedly still-undecided superdelegates, to endorse a candidate by July 1, or "better, sooner" than July 1. The Democratic Convention, which exists to choose the nominee, is scheduled for Aug. 25 in Denver. Dean's call is totally unprecedented in the history of the Democratic Party. For example, in 1980, Sen. Ted Kennedy fought Jimmy Carter for the nomination, and argued that even pledged delegates could vote their conscience. There is no Democratic National Committee rule that compels delegates to vote for the candidate they are pledged to.

Dean said on ABC's "Good Morning America" show today, that he came to that conclusion after consulting some party hacks, including Al "Jello Head" Gore and Nancy Pelosi.

Al Gore, whose family's coal mine was the inspiration for the Tennessee Ford song, "Sixteen Tons," said, "I think the nomination will resolve itself before the convention. We'll see." And Obama supporters Sens. Patrick Leahy (Vermont) and Christopher Dodd (Connecticut) said the nominee must be decided before the convention.

Unfortunately for these tools of the British operation against Hillary Clinton, Mrs. Clinton has made it clear that she is not quitting. As she put it on Fox News: "Nobody should be writing obituaries for this race, because it is a long way from being over."

Lyndon LaRouche suggested that the only obituaries being written, will be for Clinton's opponents, who are doing the Brits' bidding. Her rivals are all queens, but none of them is a woman. And as for Gore, LaRouche said he has a better chance of being elected Queen of England than President of the United States.
