The Trilateral Commission: excerpt 4

Carter very definitely impressed Rockefeller and Brzezinski, more so than another Southern Democrat, Florida Gov. Reuben Askew, also selected to serve on the Commission and viewed, like Carter, as a possible Trilateral candidate - in fact, according to Brzezinski, "It was a close thing between Carter and Askew, but we were impressed that Carter had opened up trade offices for the state of Georgia in Brussels and Tokyo - that seemed to fit perfectly into the concept of the Trilateral" - Carter, in fact, like Askew, did announce for the 1976 Democratic presidential nomination, but because of Rockefeller's interest, Carter had the inside shot, so much so, that in a speech at the commission's first annual meeting in Kyoto, Japan in May of 1975, Rockefeller's man Brzezinski promoted the then-still obscure Carter to his fellow Trilateralist's as an ideal presidential candidate.

from that point on, it was all cut and dried - according to Goldwater: "Rockefeller and Brzezinski found Carter to be their ideal candidate - they helped him win the Democratic nomination and the Presidency - to accomplish this purpose they mobilized the money-power of the Wall Street bankers, the intellectual influence of the academic community - which is subservient to the wealth of the great tax-free foundations - and the media controllers represented in the membership of the CFR and the Trilateralist."
