September 2, 1995 ICLC Schiller Institute conference.About 1,200 political activists from around the United States and many foreign countries met in Vienna, Virginia over
Labor Day weekend, for the semi-annual conference of the Schiller Institute and the International Caucus of Labor Committees. Under the banner of "1995-1996, The Year of Decision," leaders of the movement led by economist and Democratic presidential pre-candidate Lyndon LaRouche presented what LaRouche himself, in his keynote speech, called the "heavy ideas" required to prevent the destruction of human civilization, in the coming 18- to 24-month period of inevitable financial collapse.
LaRouche's keynote presentation situated the political tasks of the period from the standpoint of "universal history ," the centuries-long battle between the forces of the Renaissance republican movement, and the Venetian-British oligarchical system. Provocatively titling his speech "How to Tell If the News Is Newsworthy," the candidate stressed the need for individuals to challenge the false assumptions of their fellow citizens, and to act to shape the policy of the U.S. government in the direction of the bankruptcy reorganization which he has outlined. "We've come to the point," LaRouche said, "that the collapse of the economy, the change in the form of our economy, has brought us to the inevitable doom of the existing world monetary and financial system.

A classical music piece preceded the speech, and there is the famous "how do I talk about LaRouche at the coffee shop" question which Mr. LaRouche answered with details about his enemies, and how to deal with stupid people in his usual hilariously ruthless way.

This is a copy of a copy, so the quality of the video will be poor and there is a slight glitch for a few minutes at the beginning of Mr. LaRouche's speech.
