From Mortie Blackwell's resume' Blackwell and Weyrich also lead International Policy Forum (IPF), which appears to be the international parallel to CNP (Council for National Policy). The two organizations held joint meetings in St. Petersburg, Russia, in 1991 and in Romania in 1992. Blackwell has also trained rightist political forces in Latin America and Africa(19) through IPF, notably supporters of the Pinochet military dictatorship, Argentinean rightists, and supporters of Inkatha chief Buthelezi in South Africa. It was Buthelezi's group that later attempted to create civil war in South Africa to keep apartheid policies in place. Inkatha worked with pro-apartheid and neo-nazi groups to stop the elections eventually won by Nelson Mandela. A number of IPF projects, including the Inkatha training, were aided by U.S. government funding through the National Endowment for Democracy. supporter of pro-apartheid and neo-nazi militants...nice guy. supporter of Pinochet...maybe he can answer some questions as to how millions of dollars of Pinochet's money ended up in Riggs Bank (ceo uncle jonathan BUSH) No US military service though. In youth politics, Mr. Blackwell was a College Republican state chairman and a Young Republican state chairman in Louisiana. He served on the Young Republican National Committee for more than a dozen years, rising to the position of Young Republican National Federation national vice chairman at large. Off and on for five years, 1965-1970, he worked as executive director of the College Republican National Committee under four consecutive College Republican national chairmen. Mr. Blackwell was Barry Goldwater’s youngest elected delegate to the 1964 Republican National Convention in San Francisco. He was a national convention Alternate Delegate for Ronald Reagan in 1968 and 1976, and a Ronald Reagan Delegate at the 1980 national convention.

The Republicans have absolutely zero respect for anyone who has served this country. They have gone after everyone, including McCain, who has honorably served this country. This is a way of diverting attention from their chickensh*t selves.
