    The Plan to Replace the Dollar With the 'Amero'</font></p>


    by Jerome R. Corsi
    Posted May 22, 2006</p>



    The idea to form the North American Union as a super-NAFTA knitting together Canada, the United States and Mexico into a super-regional political and economic entity was a key agreement resulting from the March 2005 meeting held at Baylor University in Waco, Tex., between President Bush, President Fox and Prime Minister Martin.

    A joint statement published by the three presidents following their Baylor University summit announced the formation of an initial entity called, “The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America” (SPP). The joint statement termed the SPP a “trilateral partnership” that was aimed at producing a North American security plan as well as providing free market movement of people, capital, and trade across the borders between the three NAFTA partners:</p> <blockquote>

    We will establish a common approach to security to protect North America from external threats, prevent and respond to threats within North America, and further streamline the secure and efficient movement of legitimate, low-risk traffic across our borders.</p> </blockquote>

    A working agenda was established:</p> <blockquote>

    We will establish working parties led by our ministers and secretaries that will consult with stakeholders in our respective countries. These working parties will respond to the priorities of our people and our businesses, and will set specific, measurable, and achievable goals.</p> </blockquote>

    The U.S. Department of Commerce has produced a SPP website, which documents how the U.S. has implemented the SPP directive into an extensive working agenda.

    Following the March 2005 meeting in Waco, Tex., the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) published in May 2005 a task force report titled “Building a North American Community.” We have already documented that this CFR task force report calls for a plan to create by 2010 a redefinition of boundaries such that the primary immigration control will be around the three countries of the North American Union, not between the three countries. We have argued that a likely reason President Bush has not secured our border with Mexico is that the administration is pushing for the establishment of the North American Union.

    The North American Union is envisioned to create a super-regional political authority that could override the sovereignty of the United States on immigration policy and trade issues. In his June 2005 testimony to the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Robert Pastor, the Director of the Center for North American Studies at American University, stated clearly the view that the North American Union would need a super-regional governance board to make sure the United States does not dominate the proposed North American Union once it is formed:</p> <blockquote>

    NAFTA has failed to create a partnership because North American governments have not changed the way they deal with one another. Dual bilateralism, driven by U.S. power, continue to govern and irritate. Adding a third party to bilateral disputes vastly increases the chance that rules, not power, will resolve problems.

    This trilateral approach should be institutionalized in a new North American Advisory Council. Unlike the sprawling and intrusive European Commission, the Commission or Council should be lean, independent, and advisory, composed of 15 distinguished individuals, 5 from each nation. Its principal purpose should be to prepare a North American agenda for leaders to consider at biannual summits and to monitor the implementation of the resulting agreements. </p> </blockquote>

    Pastor was a vice chairman of the CFR task force that produced the report “Building a North American Union.”

    Pastor also proposed the creation of a Permanent Tribunal on Trade and Investment with the view that “a permanent court would permit the accumulation of precedent and lay the groundwork for North American business law.” The intent is for this North American Union Tribunal would have supremacy over the U.S. Supreme Court on issues affecting the North American Union, to prevent U.S. power from “irritating” and retarding the progress of uniting Canada, Mexico, and the U.S. into a new 21st century super-regional governing body.

    Robert Pastor also advises the creation of a North American Parliamentary Group to make sure the U.S. Congress does not impede progress in the envisioned North American Union. He has also called for the creation of a North American Customs and Immigration Service which would have authority over U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) within the Department of Homeland Security.

    Pastor’s 2001 book “Amazon.com: Toward a North American Community: Lessons from the Old World for…@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41MQD65MGZL.@@AMEPARAM@@41MQD65MGZL” called for the creation of a North American Union that would perfect the defects Pastor believes limit the progress of the European Union. Much of Pastor’s thinking appears aimed at limiting the power and sovereignty of the United States as we enter this new super-regional entity. Pastor has also called for the creation of a new currency which he has coined the “Amero,” a currency that is proposed to replace the U.S. dollar, the Canadian dollar, and the Mexican peso.

    If President Bush had run openly in 2004 on the proposition that a prime objective of his second term was to form the North American Union and to supplant the dollar with the “Amero,” we doubt very much that President Bush would have carried Ohio, let alone half of the Red State majority he needed to win re-election. Pursuing any plan that would legalize the conservatively estimated 12 million illegal aliens now in the United States could well spell election disaster for the Republican Party in 2006, especially for the House of Representative where every seat is up for grabs.

    I just sent the following letter to my "congress-critters":

    I was watching Larry King's interview of Vicente Fox last night and just about fell off my couch. The story reported today is:

    Ex-Mexican President Vicente Fox last night on CNN
    Former Mexican President Vicente Fox confirmed the existence of a plan conceived with President Bush to create a new regional currency in the Americas, in an interview last night on CNN's "Larry King Live."

    It possibly was the first time a leader of Mexico, Canada or the U.S. openly confirmed a plan for a regional currency. Fox explained the current regional trade agreement that encompasses the Western Hemisphere is intended to evolve into other previously hidden aspects of integration.

    According to a transcript published by CNN, King, near the end of the broadcast, asked Fox a question e-mailed from a listener, a Ms. Gonzalez from Elizabeth, N.J.: "Mr. Fox, I would like to know how you feel about the possibility of having a Latin America united with one currency?" Fox answered in the affirmative, indicating it was a long-term plan. He admitted he and President Bush had agreed to pursue the Free Trade Agreement of the Americas – a free-trade zone extending throughout the Western Hemisphere, suggesting part of the plan was to institute eventually a regional currency.

    "Long term, very long term," he said. "What we proposed together, President Bush and myself, it's ALCA, which is a trade union for all the Americas."

    What the hell is going on in Washington? What other "secret deals" are going to be shoved in the taxpayers' ear? Most importantly, what are you and the other 49 members of the U.S. Senate (other members of the House of Representatives) going to do to stop this foolishness right now? Please let me know.

    It's funny, I remember during the last election hearing Shawn Hannity proclaiming the "end of America as we know it" if Bush is defeated.

    Turns out it's over as we know it when he wins too.

    This stuff is just frustrating. It is out in the open for anyone with two eyes to see yet most Americans are too tired to care. I've spoke with a few that call me a
    'conspiracy theorist' and 'our government would never do that to us' and don't even know where to start on educating them. How do you bring someone without the background up to speed and insert the information in such a way that they'll actually accept it.

    Was talking with someone tonight that I think is what most would call an average American that owns their small business and this was his response to a brief discussion about the subject brought up in this thread.

    A couple of years ago I was sending him weekly emails of my reading and where things are and were heading related to the dollar, etc. and guess what he did after about 3 months, asked me not to send them anymore because they were too depressing. Now these were emails that filtered out the more controversial stuff and I tried to include MSM articles that had multiple authors that confirmed the information in a nice concise email, how much easier could it get?

    Yup. One cannot expect the deluded masses to snap out of their complacency with a little information. Nearly the entire population is without hope until AFTER it becomes too late and they all reside in prison camps. This will be an unfortunate reality.

    Can't help them. Just try to help yourself, and other like-minded folk. Stay informed, and keep under the radar. ;)

    [applaud][boozingbuddies]That would about say it all!! I don't understand it, either.All the big dog judges and lawyers in fancy suits come on the nightly talk programs and talkabout the unconstitutionality of a ll it
    andjust shrug and walk off set.

    Robert Pastor also advises the creation of a North American Parliamentary Group to make sure the U.S. Congress does not impede progress in the envisioned North American Union. He has also called for the creation of a North American Customs and Immigration Service which would have authority over U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) within the Department of Homeland Security.

    looks like the dept of homeland security is a true trojan horse..[own2]What else can spew forth from its belly??
