http://www.larouchepub.com/resume.htmlIn November 1978, he designed a computer-assisted forecasting system, the EIR Quarterly Economic Forecasts for the U.S. Economy, which, during the interval 1980-1983, were the most accurate forecasts on the U.S. economy publicly available from any agency. As detailed in a widely circulated report, during the interval 1957-1994, he has made nine forecasts of major turns in the U.S. economy, of which eight have been fulfilled on schedule, and the ninth is in the process of being confirmed by events.
During the course of the 1980s, he was a principal figure in several notable developments which were significantly products of his regular work. During approximately a twelve-month period, February 1982-February 1983, he was engaged in private exploratory talks with the Soviet government concerning a proposal which President Ronald Reagan adopted and presented, on March 23, 1983, as a ``Strategic Defense Initiative.'' In an October 12, 1988 address, delivered in Berlin, and televised for later nationwide broadcast in the U.S.A., he announced the imminent collapse of the Soviet economic system, and the early reunification of Germany, with Berlin again as its capital. During November-December 1989, in close collaboration with Helga Zepp LaRouche and several others, he designed a proposal, which anticipated the later ``Delors Plan,'' which was widely circulated through influential circles in western and eastern Europe, and China, during 1990-1992; this is known as ``The Productive Triangle,'' a design for the recovery of the economies of north Eurasia.
Political
During the interval 1976-1992, he has sought the office of President of the United States five times. In 1976, he ran in the general election as a candidate of the U.S. Labor Party, an independent political association committed to the tradition of Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, Henry C. Carey, and President Abraham Lincoln. In 1980, 1984, 1988, and 1992, he sought the Democratic Party's presidential nomination, and has also sought election to the U.S. Congress, as an independent Democrat, from Virginia's 10th C.D.
n January 1983, former U.S. Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger succeeded in persuading his cronies on the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board (PFIAB) to issue a recommendation for a covert national-security operation against LaRouche et al., according to the provisions of Executive Order 12333. This recommendation was promptly put into effect by the FBI that same month. This operation, which grew into one of most far-reaching intelligence operations ever directed against a U.S. citizen, resulted in the fraudulent conviction of LaRouche and six of his associates on Dec. 16, 1988, approximately six years after the Kissinger-prompted PFIAB initiative of January 1983. One of the principal features of this continuing, 1983-1995, attempt to eliminate LaRouche by conviction and defamation, is the crucial role played by a concert of rogues under the direction of a New York private banker, John Train, of the Wall Street-linked firm of Smith and Train. During 1983 and 1984, Train maintained a salon which included representatives of the U.S. foreign intelligence community and national mass-media, including the Wall Street Journal, NBC-TV News, and Readers Digest, plus the FBI's private asset, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), and ADL lackey Dennis King. Train's documented function was to establish the common guidelines for the ``black propaganda'' lies to be used jointly by the U.S. news media. During 1984-1988, virtually all of the often massive coverage of LaRouche in the U.S. major news media was lies based on the 1983-1984 formulas adopted by the Train salon. Also, many of the witnesses who were used for the grand jury and trial proceedings against LaRouche and his associates were prepared in cooperation with participants in the Train salon
