Hello, my friends, this is Dr. Beter. Today is November 20, 1976, and this is my monthly AUDIO LETTER No. 18.

To help in understanding the threat we now face and how we got into such a position, I will discuss the following three topics today: Politically, the phantom election plan I revealed last month by which Nelson Rockefeller still plans to become America’s chief executive is proceeding so far exactly as planned. Sixty-eight per cent of the voting precincts nation-wide had voting machines on November 2, 1976, and where they jammed all across the country there was no provision for paper ballots! Thousands of ballots were lost in certain areas, the legality of thousands of others is being challenged, and re-counts are under way in some places. The net result, exactly as planned, was an extremely close popular vote and no landslide for anyone. President Gerald Ford thought he had the election “in the bag“, having been promised by Nelson Rockefeller that he would carry New York State, but the pained expression on Ford’s face as his wife delivered his concession statement on November 3 was nothing compared to the shock that awaits Jimmy Carter if the plan now under way succeeds. Meanwhile, as the stage is being set for economic and political shocks in America, we drift ever closer to war and a “Declaration of National Emergency“ that could spell the end of our freedoms, and the dangerous Intelligence gap created by Henry Kissinger continues.
