I don't know whether or not FDR knew about Pearl Harbor ahead of time.

I don't consider myself a conspiracy theorist. However, if there seems to be a conspiracy in effect, I will theorize about it.

Here's one.

ã ‚¬ ‚¬

The middle class, as it manifested itself in the "50s and "60s, is being beaten down. Good paying manufacturing jobs are being sent to third world slave labor nations and the CEOs of the corporations which are doing that are using bulldozers to skim from the top of corporate profits. This is finally beginning to be realized by members of the middle class as they lose their jobs, their homes, their health insurance and so forth.

ã ‚¬ ‚¬

With the middle class beginning to realize these facts, The Corporacracy, the true government of the US, had to make sure that those non-thinking members of the middle class didn't begin to listen to those members who actually think.

The solution -- make an African American their front man. They know that a huge portion of the American middle class hate as a rule and they definitely hate people from whom they differ. Most members of this American middle class have barely begun to tolerate people with brown skin, let alone people with black skin.

ã ‚¬ ‚¬
