Sanford Attends Bilderberg Conference
The State reports that Governor Mark Sanford attended the annual Bilderberg Conference last weekend in Chantilly, Virginia. The Bilderberg Conference is a gathering of high ranking politicians throughout the Western world as well as media moguls and wealthy and influential businessmen. It dates back to its first meeting on May 31, 1954 at the Hotel de Bilderberg in The Netherlands from where the conference gets its name.
The origin of this conference was to put to rest growing anti-American sentiment in Europe by bringing leaders from both sides of the ocean together each year to promote better cultural understandings. Nobody really knows for certain what gets discussed at the conference each year as it is closed to the media and as a rule of thumb attendees don’t divulge the information or identify other attendees. The conference also has notoriety among New World Order conspiracy theorists who believe it is a secret meeting forum of the world’s elite to plot their take over of the globe.
Sanford’s attendance raises speculation that he may indeed by eyeing higher office. Could there be more truth to the rumors pinpointing him as a possible running mate to John McCain? Could Sanford have his own presidential ambitions in mind further down the road?
