Skull and Bones historians, I have a question...
A conversation with someone I know recently said Kerry decided to concede as fast as he did because of the "Skull and Bones" connection. That is why would Kerry impede the election of one of his S*B brethren? I can't believe this would have gone that way for that reason.

So for you S&B historians, how many other Presidential elections have been by opposing S&B member candidates?

1. Alexandra Robbins used to hang out here-she's a S&B expert of sorts.

4. It's much deeper than that
Not only did Kerry lose the elections as part of a Skull and Bones plot, but EVERY SINGLE DEM PRIMARY CANDIDATE is in on it. They ALL lost because SnB told them to.

7. None that I know of.
If S&B is "no big deal" then why wouldn't either candidate talk about it?

S&B is NOT just some college fraternity. Now that Kerry has shown his true S&B colors, do you all see why the connection is important?

9. Because TALKING ABOUT IT makes it seem "a big deal", maybe?

15. This was the first thing I thought about when I heard that
Kerry conceded so early. It's pretty messed up to think some secret society of rich people might be controlling this country. However, after all the crap I've seen, heard, and read about in the last few years, this idea doesn't seem all that far-fetched. I'm seriously beginning to believe that the democrats and republicans (at least some of the ones working in DC) are all working toward the same goals. They're playing a game to make us think we have a choice, when we actually don't. This would explain why none of these politicians seemed too concerned with voter fraud before and after this past election.

11. I've read Alexandra's book
about Skull & Bones. It is a pretty detailed overview of the information that was made available to her about the secret society; it was a great read.

After reading up on the subject, I sincerely doubt that one Bonesman would find it necessary to concede the presidency to another Bonesman. The substance of Bones relationships seems to be that of loose connections between the successful and elite ex-members and the current Bonesmen, utilizing a wealth of insider information to ensure the success of their brethren. I don't doubt that some members use their connections to foster an unfair advantage for themselves, but Alexandra takes care to distinguish between dutiful Bonesmen like Kerry and reckless ones like Bush.

Still, I can understand that it's very easy to mythologize that which is not readily understandable. That's why I decided to read up on the subject.

democracy under our Constitution-what's left of it.
