United We Stand America Conference: on Foreign Policy


Pat Buchanan: End New World Order; end foreign aid

I read that our government backed a World Bank loan of $265 million to Hanoi, which is still a communist regime. This means [US taxpayers are] guaranteeing loans to the regime that murdered [our sons who were sent] to Vietnam. That, my friends, is your New World Order. I want to say to all the globalists and internationalists-when I raise my hand to take the oath of office, your New World Order comes crashing down.

It is time we begin looking out for our country and our people first for a change. Look at foreign aid. Each year we send $12 billion abroad in foreign aid. $50 billion goes to Mexico. World Bank loans go to communist China. If we cannot balance our own budget, what are we doing sending American dollars abroad to balance the budgets of foreign countries? We cut our budget for the elderly & veterans & farmers-then our government ships $12 billion abroad. When I get to the White House, foreign aid will come to an end and we will start looking out for the forgotten Americans right here.

Rev. Jesse Jackson: Let Europe & Japan share more of defense burden

Where is the money coming from to reinvest in America, when we are spending $40 billion a year defending S. Korea from N. Korea 40 years after the war? Why are we spending $1.5 trillion defending Europe and Japan from Russia, while Europe and Japan are not subsidizing Russia? Let Europe and Japan share more of the burden of their own defense. They have stable economies now. There is no military threat coming from Russia. They can afford it, and we need the money to reinvest in our own country.
