Hi everyone! I hope all of you are doing well!

Being a long-time marketer, I can tell you that Stephanopoulos used a form of neurolinguistic programming, or NLP, in the interview. NLP is designed to influence change through subtle suggestion.

Stephanopoulos basically tells Ron he is going to lose, and the theory is that anyone watching will believe this as true. The seed of doubt is then planted firmly in people's minds, and the theory is that these people will not vote for what they perceive as a destined "loser."

It's pivotal that the people watching believe Stephanopoulos to be an objective, trustworthy figure.

I feel this tactic is a desperate one. When this type of tactic fails, it usually achieves opposite results. This means the CFR is either hiring seriously lame-ass marketing gurus and political consultants, or they are really desperate.

Planting NLP seeds of suggestion only works when people have a total trust in the person offering the suggestion. Who trusts Stephanopoulos or any establishment figure on mainstream news anymore? This was a major failure and it's easy to deprogram the suggestion simply by letting everyone know Stephanopoulos is a member of the CFR and is a form Bilderberger.

Next time try using Bono from U2, or maybe the Dalai Lama. You're going to have a problem finding someone because Ron Paul comes off as a very trustworthy guy, especially to women. Or maybe cancel your subscription to the CFR and join the rest of humanity as loving human beings who want peace. Graduate from being and acting like an animal. Trust me, it's not as bad being a human being as Rockefeller says it is.
