Where did you get the information on Michelle Obama's purported tie to the Council on Foreign Relations?

reply to post by Iamonlyhuman


Well, she's on the board of the Chicago Council of Global Affairs. So I guess it's just an honest mistake. . . . . . .

Now, if you can just convince everyone that there's something inherently wrong with being on the list of Bilderbergs, Trilaterals, or the Council on Foreign Relations, you might just have something there.

David Icke has a similar round-up; but dozens of current and former Congressmen belong to the CFR.

What exactly is so sinister about Foreign Relations, unless you're an isolationist?

Michelle Obama is a long time member and on the Board of Directors for the Chicago branch of the Council on Foreign Relations. CFR members were origninally from the New York City aread, but later explanded to include D. C. and the rest of the US. They make no secret of their membership list so it is relativly easy to veify membership.

Here is a link to the Board of Directors for the Chicago branch. Please do take a look and see how Elite these memebers truly are. Included in the Chicago branch are: William M. Daley, Chairman of the Midwest Region, JPMorgan Chase & Company; Philip M. Condit Retired Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, The Boeing Company just to name a few.

It's no mistake. The Chicago Council of Global Affairs is the CCFR branch in Chicago. It's even listed on the CCFR.Org website. See above.

Ahhh...I get done with one project and you give me another! That's okay, an interest of mine so no problems. I am only vaguely aware of David Icke. My interest was sparked by Jim Marrs. If you are interested in this subject and like to read, I highly suggest Jim Marrs book 'Rule by Secrecy.' He traces all of these shadowy government think tanks from today back to antiquity - links include but not limited to Nazis, Knights Templar, Rhodes Scholars, Round Table Groups, Rothschilds...it's a thick spidery web and Jim Marrs is much more adept and knowledgable then I so seriously, if you have the slightest interest, please read his book. He is a respected journalist and even has his own forum here on ATS. Here is a link to his book on Amazon. At the very least, please read the description on Amazon:

Rule by Secrecy - Amazon Link

The CFR membership is made up for present, and past Presidents, Ambassadors, Secretaries of State, Wall Street investors, international bankers, foundation executives, Think Tank executives, lobbyist lawyers, NATO, and Petagon military leaders, wealthy industrialist, media owners, and executives, university presidents, and key professors, select Senators, and Congreessmen, Supreme Court Justices, Federal Judges, and wealthy entrepreneurs.

You get a group together like this that have secret meetings, not open to public scrutiny, and I have a big problem with it and so should every American. This isn't even just an American issue, it's a global concern. These groups are the building blocks to the NWO.

I will get together a detailed write up on the CFR, based upon fact, not my own personal speculation. I'm going to need a couple of days to get this together and it's Saturday night - so don't think I've forgotten about your request, it will take a couple of days. But, in the meantime read the Jim Marrs description on Amazon and as I already stated, if you have the slightest interest in the subject of shadowy govt groups - you *need* this book. ::breaks out her pom-poms from yesteryear:: Seriously, this guy has done his homework and he doesn't have an agenda except to shine light on these shadowy groups.

Don't forget the Queen, The Vatican, The Gettys, The Rothschilds, *and* Colonel Sanders before he went t*ts up. Oh, I hated the Colonel with is wee *beady* eyes, and that smug look on his face. "Oh, you're gonna buy my chicken! Ohhhhh!"

I guess of equal interest is the man who wrote the book the OP is referencing, Robert Gaylon Ross Sr.

Google him and make up your own mind.


and quit flagging threads so early!

I'm not sure I understand your insinuations. I googled the author, Robert Gaylon Ross Sr. and I didn't find anything of suspect or fraud. If you did, I would be most interested - please provide a link. The only curiosity I found within his book is on occasion it was heavy on religious quotes - something to which I have a natural aversion.

In the Introduction to Who's Who of the Elite, Robert Galyon Ross Sr. provides his sources of information as: The annual reports of the Trilateral Commission and CFR membership roosters. The Bilderberger information was supplied by The Spotlight weekly newspaper, published by Liberty Lobby in Washington, DC. The layout of the book is in excel form and broken down into specific areas and a combined list of those with dual and triple memberships.

I was attempting to just have list based upon this book and my own research; no personal commentary, just facts. I find Daniel Estulin who wrote 'The True Story of the Bilderberg Group' and Jim Marrs to be respectable, crediable journalist who have gone a long way to put themselves out there. I personally don't have the information on Gaylon Ross Sr. to make that same distinction. However, even though I found him to lean towards the religious right, I don't see how that could in any way effect the facts as to the affiliations of the various Elite individuals.

Here's his bio:

Born in Big Lake, Texas, he holds a BS degree in Industrial Engineering from Texas A & M University. While active in engineering, he was a licensed Professional Engineer in the State of Texas, and a National Certified Manufacturing Engineer. After graduation, he accepted a commission as a 2nd Lieutenant (later promoted to 1st Lt.) in the Army Security Agency (ASA), a branch of the National Security Agency (NSA), which is a big brother to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Military training was in the field of cryptoanalysis (the breaking of codes), and served as a Company Commander with an Intelligence Unit on the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) in the Chorwan valley of South Korea, from 1956 to 1957 (after the fighting had ceased).

CCFR ORG - Chicago Branch

It is still unclear to me why you are relating the Chicago Council on Global Affairs to THE Council on Foreign Affairs (THE bilderberg related one). Granted, the name is similar. In the FAQ's at the website, this is what they say about the name change and relation to the New York one.

7.Why did the Chicago Council change its name?

On September 1, 2006, The Chicago Council on Foreign Relations was renamed The Chicago Council on Global Affairs.

The world has undergone tremendous change since The Chicago Council on Foreign Relations was founded in 1922. Today, more than ever before, our world is shaped by forces far beyond capital cities. Chicago and the Midwest are affected by events and decisions that reach across national borders.

Our new name, The Chicago Council on Global Affairs, respects our heritage while it signals our understanding of these changes and reflects our expanding efforts to contribute to the global discourse on the critical issues of the day. What has not changed is our commitment to nonpartisanship and public education.

The two organizations are not affiliated. The Chicago Council on Global Affairs was founded in 1922 as The Chicago Council on Foreign Relations. Although our former name was similar, The Chicago Council is now, and has always been, an independent organization. The Chicago Council on Global Affairs is not affiliated with any other organization.

8. Is The Chicago Council affiliated with the Council on Foreign Relations in New York City?
The two organizations are not affiliated. The Chicago Council on Global Affairs was founded in 1922 as The Chicago Council on Foreign Relations. Although our former name was similar, The Chicago Council is now, and has always been, an independent organization. The Chicago Council on Global Affairs is not affiliated with any other organization.

Now, I'm not saying that they aren't connected... I'm just saying that in order to legitimately declare that they are, you need to have some kind of proof. Actually, I'd love to see it if you have it, I've tried to connect them and cannot.

I once saw another list on the site naming Bilderbergs that attended a meeting a while back, on this site. It may have been linked to Perseus. Do you know how I can find out if Britan’s Gordon Brown or Frances Sarkozy are members? These 2 are working closely to form the NWO, as are a lot of other foreign officials. After reading the perseus site and clicking on their financial portfolio it seems they are dealing in Biotechnology and Medical Devices. I think I saw some mention of bio chips or chip implant technology stock, somewhere on their page. Good work and research you have done! I believe this was planned at the same time Obama ran for office and these Bilerbergs chose Obama and are running the game. What little I know is that Volker has more clout than some others.

Finding out if Gordon Brown has attended should be relatively easy, he would have had to declare it in the Register of Members Interests. As he and Sarkozy are currently in government it is extremely unlikely that they will be attending this year's conference.

i would say that the biggest negative this group has ....is that they are mixing the interest of corporate america (big industry group leaders) which is only $$$$ ....
with that of elected politicians (which are supposed to have the "people's/public's interest's at heart) LOL!!!!!!

these groups shmooz together and help GREASE the revolving doors of (private sector capitalists getting public sector jobs)yet maintaing there .private sector interests as well These same groups communicating help forster cooperation (read bribery) and/ or fox's guarding the henhouses...to help... (deregulate the financial system so it can be explotied for short term corporate profits....(at some later cost to taxpayer's bailouts) instead of long term stability.... they also .."help" in selecting regulatory officers (for each industry) who look the other way.and or intimidated (by selective prosecution) ...for corportate profits.....etc, etc....

these meetings also serve to curb the appetite for individual country's policy makers soverign goals (should they have any to begin with since they often represent the private sector interests) ........in exchange for increasing international profits for multi national corporations and (financial) debt growth.....and creating policy's, law's...."agreements" and tax policy's that foster this international frame work from which it seems soverign leaders covertly are more intrested in

other than that it is great for our republic's interests

Thanks good point but doubt I can find their names on a public list of past Bildeberg Attendees. I know they are somehow, directly or indirectly affiliated with this Elite organized group. I need to look no further. Knowing they are in the G20 says enough. I wish there was a way to stop this grand scheme. There are more silent protesters, than anything else knowing there is nothing we can do but sit back and wait for all hell to break loose. I am heavily prepared though.

It seems neither Gordon Brown nor Nicolas Sarkozy have attended a Bilderberg conference.

You guys in the down-playing camp can have the CFR- sure they're not pure evil. Their perversely globalist mindset only undermines national interests a little bit but as for Bilderberg and Trilateral commission are not very good. I would recommend authors like David C Korten on this.

When you have more secrecy than a WTO meeting and with more cronyism there NEEDS to be more public scrutiny. I was very keen to keep in mind what was rumored to have been discussed in the 2008 Trilat. meeting - A deliberate campaign to bring the US down to second world levels by eliminating the middle class and increasing poverty.--Pretty malevolent wouldn't u sat?

I was able however to verify Gordon Brown attended the 1975 Bilderberg meeting. My book only has member lists up to 1999. It startes in 1954 and not every year inbetween are the members known....I find it strange in this book not one year in the 80s are the Bilderberg roosters available. They must of had some good meetings places.

Volker, in my op, is one scary individual with a lot of power. I couldn't independently verify Frances Sarkozy but it appears he has certainly been rubbing shoulders of other Bilderbergs.

I have a thread on Nano Tech in our food you might find interesting. I found this information while searching for some freakish reality of 'programmable matter' Some posters have added some excellent links as well. Visit if you get the time and are interested.

Also, thank you for your warm comments - I do appreciate them. I spent a long time getting this together - checking and rechecking trying to just put the facts together. Anyone thinking I'm Obama bashing should perhaps know I'm a liberal/libraterian - I was trying to keep my personal opinion out of this thread and have it based upon just the facts. As I did vote for Obama, I wasn't privy to who he'd put into his administration and was really shocked. Change? Only in name. This is the biggest group since the Carter administration. Any of you notice how gray Obamas hair has become in one month? The mind reels in wonderment as to what information he's since been allowed to see since taking office. I digress Here's my link:
