    National Declassification Center?!?!

    I want to scream "Watch out Mr. Obama!" and my biggest fear is that he will not live to take the presidency.

    Think about what would happen if one of his first acts as president was to being airing dirty laundry accumulated since the 1930s. Just... wow. What we already know about (such as MKULTRA) is bizarre. He could change the game forever.
