When you own all the ponies, you don't really care who wins the race. So it is with the US presidential elections in 2004.

After his triumphant appearance at the Bilderberg Conference in Italy even the New York Times was gushing at the performance of John Edwards. The selection of John "Bilderberger" Edwards by John "Skull and Bones" Kerry was inevitable, as the secret societies own all the candidates in this "election."

This time around George "Skull and Bones" Bush is not favored by the elite as his father George H. W. Bush was replaced by Bill Clinton in 1992.

The New York Times wrote -- "Several people pointed to the secretive and exclusive Bilderberg conference of some 120 people that this year drew the likes of Henry A. Kissinger, Melinda Gates and Richard A. Perle to Stresa, Italy, in early June, as helping win Mr. Kerry's heart. Mr. Edwards spoke so well in a debate on American politics with the Republican Ralph Reed that participants broke Bilderberg rules to clap before the end of the session.
