whole staff of leftists. i happen to know people in the lord hath applicants were dismissed and so forth. this happened in part because of that, but there hasn't been enough publicity about what the ford foundation actually does. information is a huge problem. in the second thing is there's family members around them. you know, it's not just white guilt. you know, the rockefellers were a pretty conservative american family. peter collier and i did a book on the rockefellers. 33 years ago i interviewed steven rockefeller who was a philosophy professor at the university of vermont. he told me, i'm a socialist. now he's the head of the rockefeller fund. which is a huge foundation of hundreds of billions of dollars and they fund radicals. >> how would one safeguard against such use quick >> i don't think you really can if you're leaving money. it's a huge problem unless you provide for a sunset in the foundation. he can't foresee what's going to go over to three generations. that's why i like the idea of generating what is political. i'm saying is political dollars, you're not going to
