19960703_Art-Bell-SIT-James-Collier-Vote-Scam-Fixed-US-Elections

James Collier, co-author of Vote Scam, exposed election fraud dating back to 1970—CBS and NBC affiliates in Florida reported identical, impossible vote totals within minutes of polls closing, using manipulated "A times B equals C" formulas from voting machines. The League of Women Voters falsified precinct results, while the FBI confirmed forged canvas sheets, yet Janet Reno blocked prosecutions. Collier’s 1996 investigations revealed the Printomatic device (used in 30% of precincts) and all-electronic machines like Sequoia Pacific lacked paper trails, enabling undetectable tampering. He alleges systemic collusion between media (ABC, NBC, CBS), political elites (CFR, DNC, RNC), and private firms (AIS), with 90% of U.S. elections fixed—examples include suppressed wins for Pat Buchanan in Missouri and premature declarations favoring Bob Dole in Iowa. Callers corroborate fraud claims, while others fear retaliation; Collier urges mass video documentation to spark electoral revolution, warning that silence sustains the illusion of democracy.

1970s Voting Scandals? 00:15:16
unidentified
Welcome to Art Bell somewhere in time.
Tonight featuring Coast to Coast A.M. from July 3rd, 1996.
art bell
From the high desert and the great American Southwest, I bid you all good evening, good morning across all these many, many time zones as we enter into a holiday weekend, the 4th of July, Independence Day.
unidentified
A good day, I think, to do what we're about to do.
art bell
Just wait till you hear.
From the Tahitian and Hawaiian island chains across this great nation to the Caribbean and the U.S. Virgin Islands, south into South America, north to the Pole and worldwide on the internet.
This is Coast to Coast A.M.
And I'm Art Bell.
And coming up in a moment, a man named James Collier, who wrote a book called Vote Scam.
And a number of people have urged me to have him on.
And I've got the book here, and I've got James Collier on the line from New York.
Does your vote count for anything?
Or is it really a futile exercise in what we think of as a representative democracy?
I've always been somewhat in doubt, but I'm a listener and I can be convinced.
So we will see.
James Collier and Vote Scam coming up in a moment.
Okay, as promised, here he comes.
James Collier.
Who is he?
He is at once an investigative reporter and co-author with his brother Ken of Vote Scam, the stealing of America, published by Victoria House Press.
Jim was raised in the suburbs of Huntington Woods, Michigan, son of a prominent attorney, attended Wayne State University in Detroit and the University of Miami.
In 1770, it couldn't be 1770, could it?
He was Ken's campaign manager, that must be 1970, when he ran for Congress against Democratic incumbent Claude Pepper as a research for a book idea sold to Dell Publishing running through the system ballots, not bullets.
What they discovered about vote counting in America triggered a 20-year investigation that culminated in this book.
Jim has been a staff reporter for the Miami News, and in 1959 went to Cuba to write a seven-part series on the Castro Revolution for the AP.
Both he and his brother were publishers of the Daily Planet, a national alternative bi-monthly in the 70s.
I think that's where Superman worked.
And the Miami Beach Herald Examiner, a weekly published in the mid-80s.
His constant battle with the establishment press to expose vote fraud led him to becoming editor of the four-decade-old News in Miami.
He was based in Washington, D.C., established the Home Newswire, which reported on government politics and ran the controversial vote scam series from 1984 through 87.
He appears on talk shows from Coast to Coast, which he is doing right now, has begun work on his second book, Vote Scam, the Shadow Government, which will further investigate the media's role in controlling the vote.
Please welcome James Collier.
James, hello.
unidentified
He really had to suffer through that one, man.
art bell
Well, 1770.
unidentified
I don't know who did that.
1970.
art bell
I just took a guess, yeah, 1970.
James, everybody wants to think that their vote counts.
I vote.
I'm a registered voter, and I go down and do my duty, and I somehow feel that it really does count.
Is it really true that it doesn't?
unidentified
In most of the country, it does not count.
And it's really ⁇ I always hate saying that because it's the birthright of American people, and it's like kicking the pins out from under people when you say that.
But the thing is, I've been around the country.
I just got back from a week-long 10-day tour of Florida.
I just got back two days ago, spoke down there, and I'm going out to California in a week.
And people from across this country know what I'm saying is true.
And, you know, the people, getting on the Art Bell show when you're a writer out there, you've really got to rise to the top.
I mean, I know because Victoria House Press has been trying to get me on.
And so I suspect that so many people must have called you that you said, let's take a shot at this guy.
So something's happening out there.
art bell
Well, yes, it is.
And yes, a lot of people have contacted me.
And I've always not scoffed at it, but been in doubt about it.
I guess I'm a little, I guess I'm naive.
Anyway, we'll find out whether I'm naive or not.
I've always sort of felt that basically, you know, I know about the dead people voting in Chicago and that kind of thing.
But beyond that, I thought basically our voting was honest.
unidentified
Well, now, in June 25th of this year, Trevor Armbrister wrote an article for Reader's Digest saying elections are rigged in the United States.
And I talked to Trevor almost a year before he wrote that article and told him all about Vote Scan, but he left it out of the article.
And Ronnie Duggar, who was the publisher or editor of the Texas Observer, one of the top freelance investigative reporters in the country, has written articles for the New York Times, op-ed page.
The editorial pages won't touch the story, saying elections are rigged in America.
And people from states around this country are suing.
It's a scandal what's going on out there.
All right.
art bell
How's it going on?
In other words, when I go down locally here and vote, I get my ballot.
I go over.
I mark my ballot.
I hand my ballot back.
Where does my vote get changed?
unidentified
All right.
Let me start at the beginning so I can get some predicate here for people.
It started in 1970.
You read that.
Ken and I had a book contract with the Dell Publishing Company to write a book called Running Through the System Ballots, Not Bullets.
And it was based on the idea that there was revolution, war in the streets, the Chicago Seven.
Tom Hayden was a friend of mine.
I grew up with him, went to high school with him.
And I knew what he was going through then.
And we were publishing a paper called The Daily Planet, which was a national underground or alternative press paper of the time.
art bell
That was Superman's paper.
unidentified
That was Superman.
He ended up getting sued, as a matter of fact, by D.C. Comics to knock it off.
We did go to court with him in New York City, but that's another story.
And so Dell thought it was a good idea that Ken would go back to Miami and run as a Democrat in the primary against Claude Pepper, who was the father of Social Security, 70-year-old man, and ran unopposed mainly in Miami.
And we wouldn't spend a nickel.
What would the poorest guy in America be able to do if he was charismatic and spoke at every church breakfast, shook every hand, and did all the street work required out there?
And on election night, three minutes after the polls closed, September 3rd, 1970, at 7.03, the CBS affiliate down there called perfect vote percentages of 250 candidates, and they were 100% correct.
And then 20 minutes later, the NBC affiliate called perfect vote percentages, the same numbers exactly, but they added the digital total that each candidate would get.
And they were 99.99% perfect.
And in one case, in the state Senate race, four people, they were 100% perfect, right on the nose.
And of course that was impossible.
And what should have been the end of the book right there in 1970 has gone on now 25 years.
And so the day after the election, we went to the TV stations and we got the on-air readout that shows what you actually saw in the air that night.
And it said from NBC, it said that the criteria for calling perfect vote totals was one voting machine somewhere in Dade County.
And so the people who know Dade County on the west, in Pepper's district, the west is Liberty City in Overtown, which is the black area that often burns.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
The middle section is all European down U.S. one, and the beach is all Jewish.
Where are you going to get a Bellwether precinct out of that?
art bell
Well, you're not.
unidentified
So we said, well, where is it?
And they said, well, go to the League of Women Voters.
They called back the numbers from the precinct.
Now, what we found here was that we stumbled on a pilot project for America.
Just timing was just perfect.
And what I'm about to tell you goes on now across the country.
So we go to the league, the head of the league, Joyce Diefenderfer was her name, the late Joyce Diefenderfer, and she lived in a big house in Coral Gables.
And we went to her house, and in her living room with her own witnesses there, she said, nobody called anything back to the TV stations, and I don't want to get caught in this thing.
And she proceeded to cry right there in front of us in her living room.
And of course, we wrote about that in the Daily Planet and the University of Miami student newspaper and a bunch of local community papers and the Miami Herald and news and the TV stations wouldn't touch it.
And we went to the FBI and opened up an FBI report, which anybody can get today under Freedom of Information under my name or Ken's name, Jim or Ken Collier.
So everything we're saying is documented and the whole book is documented.
And the book is an adventure story of what we found.
art bell
All right, James, I need to understand.
You're suggesting that Woes reported by the television networks had no relationship or they were using some sort of weird little polling place to report what had happened and that is not at all what happened.
Now, how do you prove that is in reality not what happened?
unidentified
Right.
Well, the TV stations were saying we're not getting actual results from the courthouse.
The computer has broken down.
And that's a story that is now being used across America.
And people have seen that in the past 25 years hundreds of times in venues across the country.
The computer's broken down.
We're giving you our projections.
We later prove, and we show in the book, that the computer never broke down.
And according to the guy who programmed it, a guy named Leonard White, he said it was never down, it was never out, and that piece of paper should be in that FBI file, his statement.
And this information was being given out, and he didn't want to get nailed with this thing either.
And so what really happened was, is it was the whole election was rigged, pre-programmed by the television stations.
And we went to the elections to the guy who programmed the computer, a guy named Elton Davis, for NBC.
And we said, well, what's your program?
How could you do this with one voting machine?
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
Because basically that's an A times B equals C formula, and A, whatever the number was off that one machine times B, your program equals C, the vote totals.
And you've got to always know two out of three in an A times B equals C, and if you do, you rig the election.
So he said you'll never prove it.
Now, get out.
Well, we went to the FBI with that.
art bell
Fine.
But I still don't understand.
In other words, there are final real vote totals.
No matter what television reports, there are final total votes, correct?
unidentified
Correct.
art bell
Now, does that show that, in fact, the other party won?
In other words, you're talking about a rigged election, or are you talking about bad reporting?
unidentified
No, no, we're talking about a rigged election.
The reporting was all made up in advance because, as we point out in the book, we had to go prove how they ⁇ once we found out that they did it, and you couldn't do such a thing in three minutes or 20 minutes because nobody called anything back.
There was no program, and you couldn't do it in three minutes anyway, because you can't call 250 numbers off of a machine in three minutes.
art bell
Right.
unidentified
And the ABC affiliate there was WPLG, Channel 10, it stands for Philip L. Graham, the late husband of Catherine Graham, who owns the Washington Post and Post Newsweek.
And this will later, as we'll get into this story, lead on to Watergate.
But anyway, it ran a movie.
And again, in 1972, it ran a movie, tacitly admitting that they knew what was going on but didn't want to participate, which is criminal for a news organization to do that.
And I knew all the guys up there, and they admitted it.
art bell
Well, I still don't understand.
What you're saying went on.
In other words, I understand you're saying that the reporting was inaccurate.
unidentified
No, the reporting was 100% correct.
And what would happen?
art bell
Well, for what they were looking at, which was not a representative sample.
That's what you said, right?
unidentified
Right, they had nothing.
They had absolutely no input, zero input.
art bell
Zero input.
unidentified
And yet they had 100% perfect numbers.
How do you do that?
art bell
Well, how do you do that?
unidentified
Well, usually I don't tell this part over the air because it's a cliffhanger in the book as to exactly the precise moment that we found out the truth.
art bell
Oh, yeah, but when you're making this serious a charge.
unidentified
Right, but I'm going to do it on your show for the first time because of who you are.
So what happened was, is we started, they wouldn't give us documents, and we ended up stealing documents out of the courthouse, mainly the canvas sheets.
Now, how they voted then was on lever-style machines.
It wasn't computer.
It was a stand-up machine where you go in and pull the curtain and you flip a lever.
Right.
And what happens is you open the back of those machines in the morning, and the precinct workers read the numbers off the back.
There's a three-digit counter for each candidate, up to 999 votes, because only 1,000 votes per precinct in America is the rule, basically.
Gotcha.
So they would write, they would read 000, and they'd fill in a canvas sheet, three canvas sheets, and they'd have to sign their name on all three sheets.
Handwriting Analyst's Role 00:07:08
unidentified
Right.
And that's certification.
Now, at night, they would open the back and they would read off the numbers.
And they'd fill in the front of the canvas sheet and sign their name again.
So each person signed their name six times a day.
Right.
And there'd be about 12 people per precinct.
And so, and they would post one copy on the wall, send one downtown to the elections division, one to the county court.
That's how it used to be done in America.
And it is no longer in the precincts of America that the votes are counted.
That's an important point for people taking notes to remember.
So it was in the precinct and they did all that.
And so now the canvas sheets, when we went to look at them in the courthouse, looked all the same, except for maybe a half a dozen, looked messy and like broken pencils and like humans had touched it.
All the rest looked gray.
And even where people had indented in the morning, they indented at night.
And I said, these are forgeries.
And so we hired a handwriting analysis analyst.
And he came down.
He said, no, these are not forgeries.
This is real handwriting.
So we ended up stealing all the canvas sheets, going into the courthouse and a third-degree felony.
art bell
I'm sure it is, yes.
unidentified
Stealing them all, and then went up to Broward County and stole them all, and went up to Palm Beach County and stole them all, and called the sheriff and said, arrest us.
art bell
Well, what did you do?
Walk in like the burglars at Watergate and rifle drawers and saves?
How'd you get them?
unidentified
We did that in Dade County, and in Broward County, we went up to the counter and asked for them, and they took them out, and then we just walked out with them.
And the same in Palm Beach County.
We just walked out with them.
And when we got them home, it's a great scene in the book.
When we get them home, I throw them on my pool table in my living room.
And we look at them, and we're convinced that these are forgeries.
And we take them to the police department in Dade County, the Organized Crime Bureau.
And the cop there, Sergeant Blue, Walter Blue, he takes us into the lab and he puts it under a microscope and the pencil that they use, like the kind they use at racetracks, floated right over the top.
Not a fiber was broken on the paper.
And no indentations, no busted pencil leads, no points, no mountains on the paper.
And paper is fiber.
If you look at paper, it looks like it's all knitted fiber.
art bell
That's right.
unidentified
And so you not want.
And he says, these are all forgeries.
And so we went back to the forger.
art bell
Well, no, wait a minute.
They're all forgeries.
unidentified
I mean, we went back to the handwriting analyst who had thrown us off.
art bell
Yeah, how was it determined?
Just because there were no messy marks, that determines it to be a forgery?
unidentified
Yeah, because not a fiber was broken on the paper with the pointed lead pencil.
art bell
Okay, then how was the lead, it was a lead pencil, how was it transferred to the paper?
unidentified
Ah, well, wait.
That's a good two.
I really hate to give all this away, but we're going to do it here.
We go back to the handwriting analyst.
About a year or so has passed now to get to this point because, you know, it was a real struggle because we didn't know where to go.
I mean, you don't know what to do.
You know you got the tiger by the tail, but you don't know what to do with it.
art bell
So you've got a cop saying, yeah, they're forgeries.
You've got a handwriting expert saying, no, they're not.
unidentified
Right.
And he's the official handwriting expert for Dade and Brower County.
Whenever there's a case, they call him in.
art bell
I see.
unidentified
So we go to his house up in Plantation, Florida, and we go into his laboratory and we put it under his microscope.
And he says, nah, these are not forgeries.
While Ken is arguing with him in his lab, I'm looking around to see what kind of books he reads in the outer room there.
He has all his books.
Sure.
See the measure of the man.
And on the coffee table is a copy of Police Magazine, May 1972.
Take notes, guys.
But it's in the book.
art bell
Police Magazine.
All right, I'll tell you what.
We've got a break here at the bottom of the hour.
So, hang tight.
My guest is James Collier.
His book is Vote Scam: Vote Scam: The Stealing of America.
We're going to let it unwind before your ears.
unidentified
This is Premier Networks.
That was Art Bell hosting Coast to Coast AM on this Somewhere in Time.
To Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
Tonight, featuring Coast to Coast AM from July 3rd, 1996.
art bell
About 30 minutes on the West Coast from Independence Day, are we?
Does your vote count?
Vote scam is the book.
James M. Collier is my guest.
And we'll get back to him in a moment.
Now to James Collier.
James, alrighty, so here you are with two guys: one a cop saying, Yep, forgery, the other a handwriting expert saying, No, it's the real thing.
You're looking at his books in his home.
What happens?
unidentified
So on the table is a copy of Police Magazine.
I don't know if they still put it out, but Police Magazine was big then.
And there's an article in there on how to forge documents using a bank rapidograph.
art bell
A bank rapidograph.
In other words, something that signs or writes automatically.
unidentified
Automatically, right?
You just get a signature and you can trace it.
Sure.
And it's written by the forger.
His byline, the house we were in, he had it open on his vanity table.
Voting Machine Forgeries 00:02:57
art bell
It was his article.
unidentified
His article.
art bell
Oh, my.
unidentified
The hair stood up on the back of my neck.
I showed it to Ken.
And then I hear his wife or somebody rustling around the corner.
And I said, let's get out of here.
And I grabbed the magazine and I ran.
And he chased us out of the house, give that back.
And so we gave it back.
They didn't want cops after us.
And that was it.
So we took it to the FBI, of course.
And the FBI said, yeah, these are all forgeries.
And the Organized Crime Bureau said it was forgeries.
art bell
Really?
unidentified
And then they shipped all the voting machines out of town in 1973.
And they refitted them with a device called the Printomatic.
Now, what I'm about to tell you is being used in one in 30% of the country right now.
And they said, no longer will the precinct workers ever be able to open the back of those machines again.
From now on, they're going to crank a handle, and a roller will go across a piece of paper which is put over those numbers.
They were raised up like Braille.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
And it'll make an imprint and the paper will come out a slot in the bottom like a gumball.
Right.
And it'll have the zeros on it and you'll certify that.
Right.
And at night it'll have the numbers and you'll certify that.
So the first time they used it in Dave County, they cranked the handle and the roller went halfway across and jammed and they called troubleshooters because nobody had keys anymore.
And the troubleshooters came and everybody could see that where the numbers where the roller had not gone.
It jammed up and pinched up the paper.
art bell
Right.
unidentified
The zeros were on the paper in it, and the numbers were already on it for nighttime.
You mean they had been pre-programmed inside the machine.
And so 4,000 precinct workers walked off the job, and the next day the Miami Herald wrote a story, September 24th, 1974, for you people who want documentation.
And it said there was a big snafu when 4,000 people walked off the job, and it never said why.
And it said firemen and policemen took their place.
And hundreds of people went to the Miami Herald to get a story, and the Herald told them, go home, go away.
We don't do this story, and so did the TV station.
art bell
Let me take you back for one second.
With respect to the election that you say you proved, to the FBI's satisfaction, that it was rigged.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
What happened?
unidentified
Well, the circuit court appointed an attorney because we kept taking it all to the circuit court, the head judge, and he says, I'm sick of you guys.
I'm going to give you an ombudsman.
Duplicate Seals Exposed 00:10:50
unidentified
His name was Ellis Rubin.
And Rubin is quite famous in America.
He was the Bay of Pigs attorney, the Watergate burglars attorney, all of them except for Liddy.
Right.
And a few other famous.
His most recent one was Kathy Willits, the lady who was in Fort Lauderdale married to a cop, and they got her on prostitution, but he pleaded that she had to have sex every 10 minutes or something.
I remember that.
art bell
Yeah, I remember that.
unidentified
Right, okay, so that's Ellis.
He's a terrific attorney.
Anyway, it didn't cost us a nickel.
Court appointed him.
He saw it all.
And he talked to the FBI and Organized Crime Bureau, and they all agreed it's a rigged election, and we had proven how they had done it, down to the letter.
So he takes it all to the state attorney's office.
Right.
TV cameras in tow.
And he goes in, he waives immunity, which they made him do to intimidate him, which means if you're lying, we can prosecute you.
And lawyers won't generally sign that.
And he gave his report to the state attorney, and he comes out, and I'm sure we've got the Pulitzer now, man.
This is it.
The story's about to bust wide open.
And he stands in front of the mic and he says, state attorney Janet Reno has told me to tell you that the statute of limitations has run out on the crime and she refuses to prosecute.
And he runs out of the building.
art bell
I'll be damned.
unidentified
And that's the last we saw of him for eight years.
But there it was.
Janet Reno obstructed justice, admitted there was a crime, lied about a statute of limitations, and she's in the Justice Department now.
art bell
Lied about the statute of limitations.
unidentified
Yeah, there's no statute on fraud.
And even if there had been a two-year statute on the original printed material that we found forgeries, it had 48 hours to go.
art bell
All right, so you were well within, or not well within, but barely within whatever limit there would have been had there been a two-year limit.
unidentified
Right, but there is none on fraud.
But anyway, Ellis eventually writes to an affidavit saying that he told her to do her duty, and she says to him, this is what he's willing to admit, but more happened than this, that she said, Ellis, if I do this, it'll bring down everybody in Dade County.
I'm going to do it.
So she didn't do it.
And that's why she's in the Justice Department now protecting vote rigging across the country.
art bell
All right.
Now, you say that the same kind of machines that you just talked about are in 30% of the precincts across America.
unidentified
Right.
There's a woman in Waterloo, Iowa, who read the book, and then she had a public access TV show there, and she was on the school board.
And she went to the election supervisor there and said, I want to look in the back of the machines and see what's on those print-ematic, that piece of paper in there.
And he said, when hell freezes over.
And the Waterloo, Iowa courier vilified her and told everybody in the editorials, don't read vote scam.
It's not true.
Don't read it.
And I called up the guys over there, the head editorial writer and Eric Wolson, and I had a long talk with him and explained, just like I'm explaining to you.
And he'd read the book and all that.
And I said, you know, this is wrong what you're doing.
And he says, I know, but I'll never get the other guys on the board to allow you a rebuttal.
art bell
Well, in every case, you've got a candidate, an incumbent usually, and you've got a challenger at least.
Now, when a vote comes out a certain way, you would think if there was vote fraud and with your material out there, the guy who lost would be inclined to say, look, look at Collier's material.
It was stolen from me.
unidentified
Right.
That's happening.
art bell
It's happening.
unidentified
Yeah, that's why it's finally gotten to you, because, I mean, the book has been out two years.
art bell
I know.
unidentified
It's sold big numbers so far, just word of mouth, because the media won't review it.
It's just word of mouth and radio talk shows.
And not because if the book had no validity, it would die of boring, but it has it because people say, look, just what we found when we, and these are intelligent men and women, investigated themselves and have sued, gone to court.
And wait till I tell you about the primaries.
I mean, hang in there, guys.
These last primaries, as far as I could determine, were all rigged.
And I wrote an article for Media Bypass magazine saying so.
art bell
I've got that article.
unidentified
Okay, so anyway.
Yeah, the people are doing it.
They're mad as hell all over this country.
I just got back from Florida, and believe me, I was talking to the Republicans of Palm Beach.
These are not poor people.
art bell
No, no.
unidentified
And they're not dumb.
I mean, this is Palm Beach.
You're on.
art bell
You're on the air there right now.
They're listening.
unidentified
Okay, yeah, great.
And they're mad.
I mean, they got a city out there, Wellington.
It wasn't a city.
There were like 20,000 people out there.
And somebody got the bright idea, hey, if we incorporate these people, we can become councilmen and mayors and set up judges and all that and really get all the money out of these taxpayers more than they're paying the county.
People didn't want it.
And the poll showed they couldn't possibly win.
And it won.
They became a city.
art bell
James, you've reasonably documented what happened in Florida.
How do you know this is going on everywhere?
unidentified
All right, now, let's get up one more step here to 1982, and the Republican National Committee put out a reward offer.
It said, and it was in all the newspapers saying that we know there's election rigging in the United States.
That's the RNC.
And it said, we'll give you $5,000 for every arrest and conviction you can get of people found tampering with the vote.
Right.
So we were told that the League of Women Voters were up in this bunker-like building in Dade County called the Data Processing Center out on Chrome Road for you guys listening down there.
And it's in the middle of the Everglades.
Nobody could get out there.
And that they were punching thousands of holes in the vote card.
So we got a video camera and we followed the vote card from 7 o'clock at night down to where it got counted.
And it's no longer counted in the precinct.
They take them out of there.
Now, the vote card, this is the computer ballot across America now, what I'm telling you.
I want to find, if anyone can refute this, call up Art and say, yeah, it's not true in my area.
The computer ballot goes home to precinct captains' homes anywhere up to two weeks ahead of the election.
Your vote is in some private partisan citizen's hands.
Not only that, duplicate copies are given to them.
So let's say they have a thousand ballots.
They're given 2,000 ballots.
art bell
Why?
unidentified
Because they sit around and have hole punching parties.
And then when the polls close at 7 o'clock, and this is all on video.
And I finally got a video.
I'm putting out within the last month.
I finally got a video.
And the footage that I described, what I'm telling you right now, is described in the book, but it's also on this video if people want to get it.
art bell
What actually do you have on video?
unidentified
All right, now I'll tell you.
Anyway, we were told we would be arrested if we did do what we're doing, if we followed this ballot card by David Leahy, the election supervisor of Dade County.
So we went to a precinct and we created a lot of noise at 10 minutes to 7, and then they called Leahy and the cops, and we ducked out of there and went to another precinct and quietly went in and had a camera, said we were from the Miami Herald, and we photographed the whole process and followed it down to the procedure is the same across America.
It goes from the precinct to like say a high school where 10 precincts will bring their 20 or 50 precincts will bring their security.
art bell
For counting, yeah.
unidentified
Right, and then they put these things in metal boxes, a thousand cards, and they seal them with a seal like you use on your meter at home, your hot water, your meters.
You know, it's plastics and on a wire seal.
You can't break them unless you twist them or cut them.
Now, when they get there, you see on the video, the woman, the guy says, my seal is broken.
And because the video is on them, they didn't put a new one on.
And you see a guy taking a Burger King bag.
He walks in with it, and we didn't know what it was, and he puts it down.
And then later, a whole handful, like 20, 30 seals, appear on the table.
And so we asked the lady in the video, we said, well, if the seals broken and you put on a new one and record the number, you know, that's like fraud because it shows like there was never a broken seal.
And we said, how could the seal get broken?
And she says, well, that's a good question.
Because you can't break them in the car from the precinct to the high school.
art bell
That's right.
unidentified
What they do is they have duplicate seals.
We later proved that.
art bell
They have duplicate seals.
unidentified
If people are investigating in their area, you go to your elections division and find out who makes the seals and how many do they order.
That's one of the things, the paper trail that you look for.
Anyway, they had duplicate seals and they regularly substitute ballots in their cars on the way out to the central place.
And they bring them and they put new seals on or they're given duplicate seals in the box and they seal it up in the precinct, then they break it in the car and put a new seal on.
So from that point it goes down to this computer, this data processing center where they had guards, metro cops, security guards, dogs, TV cameras, and we were told, you know, that we weren't supposed to get in.
And we got in.
And we got up three stories up, three flights of steps, and we got in and we videotaped the League of Women Voters punching thousands of holes in the vote.
And we had gone to the Miami Herald because we knew all the guys there.
On Behalf of Incumbents 00:05:16
art bell
You got this on tape.
unidentified
On tape, yeah, wait, I got I got a punchline on it.
That's why I say there's so many hangers in this book that for the people who want to buy it and read it, I hate to give away some of these.
art bell
But anyway.
You know, here's a question for you.
On whose behalf are they doing this?
Generally the incumbents' behalf, I would presume?
unidentified
Yes.
98% of incumbents win in America.
art bell
I know that.
That's why I asked.
It's generally on behalf then of the incumbents.
unidentified
Right, because that's stability.
If you see corporate America, local, state, and federal, it's just one big corporation.
And stability is important to the people who run the country because you can't make plans.
You can't get the builders and the developers and everybody doing thing.
If you're going to have a maverick in there who just wants to play hardball, it's, no, I don't want to give you a variance.
You know, you're building out there into the swamps, and those swamps are for animals and for water.
And you want to take it away to build your building to get rich.
No, I'm not going to give it to you.
Well, you don't need that kind of guy in power.
Or somebody who says, I'm going to do an audit and find out how all you crooks ahead of us have been stealing.
You don't need that guy in power.
And so that's been going on in this country for so long that to get anybody honest in government now and let them do all that would just blow this country wide open, which someday it's going to happen.
art bell
Well, the implication of what you're suggesting is that both parties, on behalf of their incumbents, are doing this on a regular basis.
unidentified
Yeah, but the ones who are doing it is the media.
The newspaper in the town is they all have these editorial boards where they endorse the candidates and all that.
Those guys are the big publisher, you know, the guys, the country clubs set.
They're the ones.
The election supervisors just do what they're told.
But the power is the media and the television station owners.
It's a handful of people in each venue.
And nobody can go complain to them because they're the media.
Who are you going to complain to?
art bell
Well, I'm not sure now that I'm following you.
I certainly follow the vote fraud part of it that you've talked about.
unidentified
Someone's out there saying, who's doing it?
Who makes the rules?
art bell
Are you saying this because you go to the media and they won't touch it?
unidentified
We go to the media and they won't touch it.
That is correct.
And not only us, I mean, people across this country have had wars with their local media over this.
I've got a war going with Bob Woodward of the Washington Post.
He says, don't start a war with me over this.
And I have that quote in the book.
Yeah, that's it, because they won't do anything about it and because we actually know the procedure that they use.
But wait, it gets even worse.
It gets worse.
Wait, the indictment of the media gets heavier and documented.
Anyway, they're punching the holes, and the Herald had sent a reporter named Bob Lowe, Pulitzer Prize winner there, because we said, hey, we're going to go up, and they're threatening us with arrest.
And so they sent him there to see if we got him.
And he was there, and we get him on the video.
Anyway, they're punching the holes.
He writes the next day in the Herald that thousands of holes are being punched.
There was a blizzard of Chad, was his quote.
Chad is the little hole that you punch out of the thing, the little white piece on the floor and on the feet beneath the table.
So anyway, we go into the room where they're counted after that.
And this contingency of women and men being paid at that time, I think, $50 per head per hour to the national coffers out of taxpayers' dollars to be in there tampering with a vote.
And they're still getting it across America.
Anyway, we go into the room where these BMX machines are, ballot multiplexers, which is just like a console, like an old radio used to be stand-up.
art bell
Sure.
unidentified
And they would put a thousand votes in one side of a metal hopper and a light and the pneumatic thing would suck the cards past a light, which would read the holes in the cards onto a magnetic reel that you see turning and then come out the other side.
And so eight of the nine machines were totally dark and empty.
Nobody standing, even nothing.
And then the ninth machine, we videotape a guy taking a card from the already counted side, putting it back to be recounted, a federal offense.
But the FBI stop actioned it for us, and they caught that the holes in the card were running the wrong way.
It wasn't even votes.
It was a phony deck.
With that, the hand goes over the lens of the camera and they said, get them out of here.
They drag us down three flights of steps and out 100 yards to the Everglades and the cops said, don't come back.
art bell
I'm surprised you haven't spent a lot of time in jail, James.
unidentified
Well, Janet Reno had me arrested.
She did?
Yes.
art bell
So you did spend some time in jail?
Attention Attention: 60,000 Voters 00:15:39
unidentified
I did indeed.
How long?
Oh, well, they bailed me out, so it was, you know, just hours, but I was under, you know, I couldn't leave the county till that got resolved.
But how it got resolved, I don't want to give that one away.
That's a good cliffhanger, too.
I want to just give that one away.
She did have me arrested, and the front of the book says the book that indicts Attorney General Janet Greeno.
And there's a petition in the back of the book saying that we've read this book and we know there's election rigging.
art bell
Yeah, she's been saying she's sick of getting those petitions.
unidentified
Yeah, she's sick of getting right.
I know.
art bell
All right, James, listen.
We're at the top.
Yeah, hold on.
We'll come back.
We'll talk about the primaries.
unidentified
The trip back in time continues with Art Bell hosting Coast to Coast AM.
More Somewhere in Time coming up.
This presents Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
Tonight, featuring Coast to Coast A.M. from the 3rd of July, 1996.
art bell
Good morning, everybody.
My guest is James Collier.
James Collier, who wrote Vote Scan, and he has laid out an hour of very, very serious charges about vote fraud in America.
And I'll tell you what I'd like to do.
We're speaking to the entire land right now and beyond.
I would like everybody to not call, don't call, hang up the phone.
What I want to do is get some precinct workers on the phone.
I want to get some vote counters.
unidentified
People in the system.
Attention, attention, attention.
If you have been a precinct worker, I'd like to talk to you.
art bell
So let me give you the appropriate numbers.
And if you have worked in a precinct and you know of what Mr. Collier speaks or you wish to challenge it, I want to hear from you.
now to uh...
james collier who wrote vote scan James, are you there?
unidentified
I'm here.
art bell
All right.
Let's talk briefly about the primaries.
unidentified
Well, wait, let me just finish one thing there.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
The tape that we got, we sold to Pat Roberts and his 700 club, the Christian Broadcasting Network.
Oh, you did?
Yeah, $2,500.
He paid just to show that once on his show.
art bell
And so do you retain the rights to the tape, James?
unidentified
Yeah, but excerpts of it are on the video.
Can I give a number?
art bell
Yeah, absolutely.
In other words, people can get this videotape or excerpts from it on a videotape.
All right, and on the tape, you've got the things you talked about last hour.
unidentified
And in the book, I describe it down to every scene, including the dialogue.
So if you don't get the tape, it's very picturesque in the book.
And then we went to Cincinnati.
We got brought into there by Jim Condit, who you should have on your show, too.
He's another investigator like myself and has done some great work.
And we videotaped the League of Women Voters there using tweezers to tweeze out a slate of candidates under threat of arrest.
We were there.
And we brought that to the TV station, Channel 9, the next day, and they ran it.
And we went on WCKY radio, the Jan Michelson show, the next day.
And Jan's now in WHO in Des Moines, that big 50,000 water.
So people can call him and say, hey, is it true?
Anyway, he challenged the election supervisor, Elvira Radford, been there 20 years to deny it, and instead she resigned.
And then Cincinnati Inquirer didn't write a word.
And we've gone around the country.
But now I'm telling people to go do it themselves.
That's why I say get the book because it's like a blueprint of what, because everyone said, well, what can we do?
I don't want people to despair.
What I'm telling people, and I'm now speaking everywhere I can get where people will bring me across this country now, that, yes, you can solve this problem when we can turn America back into what we thought it was anyway, Norman Rockwell is America, and get rid of all this because all the problems that we're facing and all the civil rights that we're losing that people listening to this station, I'm sure,
know about all come from people put into power who are voting our rights away.
And we can change that.
Right now, you can't vote them out.
art bell
Should Bob Dole be the presumptive nominee right now?
unidentified
How do you mean that?
art bell
Straight on.
unidentified
Should he be in.
art bell
Should he be the presumptive nominee?
In other words, from your perspective, was it rigged?
unidentified
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
I'm going to get to that.
Let me tell one more thing about the media.
Then we'll get to that.
This all started.
Digging for investigative reporting is mainly a paper trail.
If you don't have it, you don't really have much.
So we dug into the documents of this case.
And in the Library of Congress, we found several documents.
One was an election administration report put out by Richard Smalka of American University.
And the other was a report by the American Air Force Staff Command College.
And what they said was that back in 1964, after Kennedy was assassinated, the TV networks and the APUPI and Washington Post, New York Times all got together with the United States Senate and Congress and the FBI and the CIA, and they made a deal.
And they said, we will not contradict the Warren Commission report.
And this statement I'm giving you, I got from David L. Wolper, who does all the documentaries, until 1995.
Well, that was wrong, according Wolper told me 95, but it's past that.
So we'll not contradict that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gunman, but we want the right to count the vote in America.
And so they formed, they got it, and they formed a pool called News Election Services, NES.
And it's a network pool.
So when you see Brokaw, Rather, and Jennings go on the air saying we're the first with the most, it's 701 in the President's Clinton.
And they're not.
They're all getting it from the same tote board at 225 West 34th Street, New York City.
Just like the Miami thing that I explained in the first hour, League of Women Voters out calling back numbers, their computers, same game, the pilot project is now national.
And their computers tie into every mainframe computer in every county in America that counts the vote downtown by computer.
And it can change those numbers in counties across America at will.
And it's tied into every Secretary of State's office mainframe computer and can register the vote.
So the news media has total control of the vote.
And I just found out from an investigator in Polk County, Florida, that there's a company called AIS, American Information Systems.
Now, what we also discovered was that companies, there are private companies, and I have an open letter to Ross Perot in the book telling him about this, and he's gotten it from many people, believe me, is saying that these companies go and run the elections for the election supervisors around America because they don't know how to, the election people don't know how to run the computers.
And they come in for thousands of taxpayers' dollars unbeknownst to the taxpayer without public bid.
And they run these elections on every election, hundreds of thousands of dollars per election.
art bell
All right, James, I've got a fax here.
It says when 10,000 people show up for Pat Buchanan's rally and a couple dozen show up for Dole, who do you really think is the front runner?
unidentified
Yeah, well wait, well, get to that.
art bell
Well, we've got to because we don't have a lot of time and I've got a lot of people that want to get on the air here.
Okay.
So yeah, Pat.
Yeah, Pat.
What happened in the primary?
unidentified
Okay.
The primaries, what happened was that in Iowa there was a caucus.
It used to be a show of hands caucus.
Right.
This time they said, and now you'll know what I'm telling you about the media.
This time they said, no, it's going to be a paper ballot election, but it's counted after 7 o'clock.
Nobody votes all day.
The people come in at 7 o'clock and raise their hands or they vote on the paper ballot.
So at 6.55 in the Iowa caucus, the television media came on the air, and this is all documented, and said, we got the totals.
We know the numbers and Dole's going to win.
And not a single vote had been cast.
And so after the election, the numbers that they were told, don't register those votes downtown, those paper ballots.
Just throw them away.
art bell
It's not a real, you know, then why wasn't Pat Buchanan screaming bloody murder?
unidentified
Well, wait a minute.
So anyway, what happened was the next day in the paper, the people noticed that 10% of Pat Buchanan's vote was shaved and Dole was added 3%.
And then when you call up the election supervisors in any county in Iowa, and you can do this, anybody listening, and say, how did you get the numbers?
Well, the media gave them to us.
And whatever the media said is what got recorded.
And that was NES, the network pool.
Now, Buchanan goes to New Hampshire.
And we have a story in the book about how Bush rigged the New Hampshire primary to beat Dole in 1988 and how Sununu was the beneficiary of that.
Anyway, they read an ad in the New Hampshire news favor, the Manchester Paper.
And if you go to Pat Buchanan's page on the internet, you'll see this ad that I'm talking about.
And it says, we've read Vote Scam.
Now, I didn't know they were going to do that.
They said, we've read Vote Scam, and we know you rig elections.
Don't do it this time.
Full page.
And so Buchanan wins.
Now the media the next day says it's the last one Pat's ever gonna win.
You know, the moment the momentum in 88 carried the WIMP Bush all the way.
He loses his WIMP status and goes all the way on momentum.
But Buchanan's the first guy who has no momentum after winning.
So they cremium him on all the Super Tuesdays after that across the country, every primary.
And 51% and 62%, schematically across the country.
And that's another thing to watch for in these elections.
You'll see at 7.01 when Brokaw and Rather and Jennings come on and give you the numbers based on a phony exit poll in the East.
those numbers will not change all night uh...
art bell
anyway it is true that They do seem to stay roughly the same.
unidentified
It has everywhere, local elections, too, and that's an indication right there of a fraud.
Now, you go to Arizona, Buchanan, according to the networks, wins.
So they have to come on the air the next day and say that for the first time our exit polls didn't work, Forbes wins.
art bell
I recall.
unidentified
So now we find out that 60,000 that they're willing to admit to extra ballot, what they did is people got a plastic card with a seven-digit number on it.
It was their own card.
And when they went to vote, the seven-digit number was recorded on a piece of 8.5 by 11 paper by hand.
And the card was punched, so you couldn't vote twice.
But they printed 60,000 more that they admit to.
And the election supervisor comes in in the middle of the day at all the Maricopa County precincts there in Phoenix and takes all the ballot boxes away.
He says, put the rest of the ballots for the remaining day into that box over there.
And they go stuff them, and of course, Forbes wins.
After the election, all the Buchanan people call me and they say, what can we do?
Because the election supervisor put out a report saying that only two people used those 60,000 extra ballots.
And so they said, what can we do?
So I called the election supervisor's office.
And this is in the Media Bypass article.
And I said, how did you know that?
She said, well, we had 20 people after the election count take those seven-digit numbers, 219,000 seven-digit numbers.
That's how many voted.
And run them into a computer.
And so I said, 20 people?
She said, well, 13.
Okay, 13 people.
I said, and they worked how many days?
Three days.
I said, how many people?
10 people.
10 people worked three days after the election, 12-hour days.
I said, did they get a break?
Well, 15 minutes.
I said, that's it.
11.45.
She said, well, maybe two breaks.
11.5 hours.
All right.
That means that they had to punch 50,000 numbers a day apiece into the computer.
That works out to better than a number a second, and they never could go to the bathroom.
I said, did you ever hear of carpal tunnel syndrome?
So I said, give me the name of the 10 people.
No, I can't give you that.
Public knowledge is taxpayers' dollars.
Can't give you that.
Give me the readouts with the 219,000 seven-digit numbers.
No, I can't give you that.
And people in Arizona now are causing a big stink about it, and I don't know what the outcome is yet, but I'm going to be writing an article in Media Bypass when I...
art bell
All right, well, you'll probably hear from Arizona.
I want to get to some of the phones.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hello.
Yeah, this is Tom from Nevada.
art bell
Hi, Tom.
unidentified
And I've met Mr. Collier before.
I think he knows who I am.
Yes.
I've been doing a lot of work here in the Las Vegas area.
You have been doing work all over the country.
Everybody gets to you.
This man is definitely a person who knows the truth and who has been putting his own life on the line, helping people around the country.
Well, what I wanted to bring up was that here in Las Vegas, we videotaped some of the similar incidents that you saw over in Miami.
We videotaped the ballot boxes coming in from the precincts to the cashman field, which is where they are supposed to be counted.
The tables that received the ballot boxes, they call them transfer boxes.
All the tables had what they call seals, these paper seals that are supposed to be on the boxes to protect the boxes from tampering.
We have on videotape the tables where all the election officials were at receiving these boxes had spare stacks of seals on each table.
Voting Machine Tampering 00:15:45
unidentified
And we videotaped the boxes coming in with the seals that are supposed to protect the boxes from being tampered with and certify that they haven't been tampered with.
Many boxes, we calculate about 20% of the boxes were coming in with broken seals or missing seals.
And what they would do is they would simply ask the poll workers right in front of everybody, and we have it on videotape where they filled out new seals right in front of you, right at the election counting area, and they peeled them off and slapped them over the old broken seals.
And then they took the boxes upstairs where the computers were, where they unloaded the ballots, and then they counted the ballots like there was nothing wrong.
Right.
That's done across the country.
Same procedure.
And maybe everything is standardized across the country as far as the fraud goes.
art bell
Maybe you ought to get that videotape to Mr. Collier.
unidentified
He's got mine.
I got his.
Well, I've got his, but everybody talks about this man.
All right.
Our video has got a lot of interesting things also.
But I want to bring up something else, Mr. Bell, that in Nevada they're doing something new.
They're installing what they call all-electronic voting machine somewhere.
art bell
Yeah, I know about it.
unidentified
And that is the most insidious thing because there is no paper ballot to do a recount with.
art bell
Well, according to you guys, it's insidious either way.
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
Is that right?
unidentified
Well, at least the paper, if you have a paper ballot and someone starts monkeying with the votes, you can go back and you can videotape it.
You can do investigations.
You have some record to work with.
art bell
Oh, I see.
unidentified
When everything is stored in the computer, then there's nothing for you to tangibly record.
For instance, in a bank, if you did not have any written statements or records of deposits, et cetera, you could not prove that somebody's embezzling money.
If everything is done in the computer and they control a computer, you could program that computer to change the numbers at will for the votes.
Oh, sure.
And this Sequoia voting machine they're making, when it was tested in both Pennsylvania and Texas, the expert who was a PhD who certified it or did the certification test,
a guy by the name of Dr. Ian Seamus, he states in his account of the testing, the procedure that he did and the report on it, he states right in there that you can program these voting machines right from the front panel where you vote.
Now, he says, now normally that wouldn't be a problem because most people aren't sophisticated enough to know how to reprogram the machine to change the votes around, but that's exactly how the people who set up the voting machines determine it has rows and columns of buttons where the names of the candidates are.
That's how they program the machine so that which button stands for which candidate.
Well, if you can program the machine from the front panel, I've got you.
art bell
So I understand.
unidentified
You can change it around.
art bell
Yeah, I assume you've been down raising hell with the city council about that.
unidentified
We have a lawsuit out right now that's going to one of the candidates, Pat McMillan, who is running for Congress, one of our congressional positions, Congress 2, has just filed a lawsuit against that machine.
All right.
art bell
Very good.
James, hold on.
We'll be back to you in a moment.
We're at the bottom of the hour.
We're talking with James Collier.
Why can't I get that right?
James Collier, who authored Vote Scam along with Kenneth Collier, and we'll be back in a moment.
unidentified
This is Premier Networks.
That was Art Bell hosting Coast to Coast AM.
On this Somewhere in Time.
art bell
James Collier is my guest.
He wrote Vote Scam along with Kenneth Collier.
And we're going to get back to him in a moment.
Back now to James Collier, who wrote VoteScan.
James, I want to hit you with this.
Most Americans are good Americans.
The majority of Americans are good Americans.
My mom worked for the League of Women Voters.
I remember when I was young.
And I find it very hard to believe that you would get a group like the League of Women Voters or whoever might be counting the votes to sit there and participate in this massive fraud.
unidentified
Yeah, you would think so, wouldn't you?
art bell
I do think so.
And how do you argue otherwise?
unidentified
I've sat in right in the middle of them and infiltrated the group, and they would sit there and talk about the good old days when they could punch holes in the cart.
Believe me, believe me, I hate that line.
Most Americans are good Americans.
That's a romantic feeling.
A lot of Americans who have special interests and participate in politics are good Americans.
I mean, I would go to war with them and all that, but they'll rig elections on you in a flash.
All right.
I mean, I've seen fire lifeguards, lifeguards, who had elections.
And one of the, you know, there were two factions.
And one faction actually had control of the ballot box and debated in front of me whether they should rig the election.
art bell
All right.
First time, caller line, you're on the air with James Collier.
Hi, where are you, please?
unidentified
I'm in Las Vegas.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
Good evening, Art.
Jim.
Good evening.
I've taken a lot of photographs and video footage of fixing of the boxes and so forth.
And I did it as a result of being incited to do it by a fellow by the name of Jim after he and I and another fellow by the name of Ray had dinner one night a couple years ago here in Las Vegas.
Do you remember that, Jim?
I do indeed.
And as Tom told you, I filed a lawsuit against Catherine Ferguson on this Equoia Pacific machine.
Right, she's the election supervisor.
Yeah, yeah.
Of course, the problem is the federal courts are pretty corrupt, and they'll do everything they can to throw it out.
And the only way we're going to get that suit on is if we get a lot of public opinion, if we get a lot of discussion on the radio and on the TV and the newspapers and so forth, to where the courts realize it's a hot potato and they don't try to throw it out.
Well, it's growing.
This show today is a watershed show.
art bell
Wildcard line, you're on the air with James Collier.
Hi.

Hi, Mr. Collier.
This is Elizabeth in Vancouver.
And I just wanted to corroborate your thesis, your premise.
I ran a couple of campaigns for a very ethical conservative Republican woman who campaigned on her intention to do an audit in your words to find out how much had been stolen by the guys who had been there ahead of her, if you know what I mean.
And on election night in 1994, I was watching the precinct returns coming in over cable T V and a message came across the screen that the computers at the election office had crashed, so I called the election office to find out what was happening, and another conservative Republican volunteer came to the phone, and her voice was shaking, and I asked her what was wrong, and she kept her hand over the phone and whispered to me, about a half an hour ago,
I walked into this little room where they keep the computers which count the ballots, and they didn't see me.
They had their backs turned to me, and I heard them say, in about a half an hour, the computer will be crashing.
And it did happen.
unidentified
It's in the book.
We write about it, say, right?
It's a national phenomenon, a new candidate too.
That's what they do.
And what they do is they let through to see if they're going to get whipped by the candidate, the good guys.
And then if they are going to get whipped, because you see that candidate is winning, they crash the computer, and only when it comes back, that candidate's losing, but only that candidate gets turned around.
elizabeth in wildcard line
Exactly.
It was a Republican sweep except for my candidate.
But I have a question here.
The same thing happened to her, incidentally, in 92 in exactly the same way.
But in this case, they broke the seal on that computer, wheeled another one out, took the card out of it.
But this brings up the question of voting ballots with software programs.
And I wonder if you talk about that.
Also, in this county and in the state of Oregon, we no longer have the safeguards of the precincts.
And I'm sorry, I have to disagree with you.
I think that is our only safeguard in any election is to have a careful poll-watching count at the precinct level.
That's gone in our county.
It's gone in the state of Oregon because of mail-in ballots now.
unidentified
But you're not disagreeing with me.
That's exactly what I did say.
elizabeth in wildcard line
Well, would you talk more about computer software?
And thanks very much for your time.
unidentified
The computer software is all pre-programmed, and it's a black box operation, and it's got trap doors, Trojan horses.
There's a professor at Princeton, Howard Strauss, who's written whole treatises on it.
You can't be stupid enough to vote on this stuff.
He's got a thing called Election Watch.
And we quote him in the book.
All right.
art bell
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
Good evening.
unidentified
Good evening, Art.
art bell
Where are you?
unidentified
Great show.
Erie, Pennsylvania.
All right.
Yep.
Mr. Collier, now, for my edification, this is why I'm calling in.
I worked a precinct for a candidate.
And it was my job to hand out bills a distance away from the polling place.
And then at the end, after the polling was done, it was my job to go in and get the count.
Now, the type of machine that everybody uses around here is the type where you pull down the levers and the screen goes behind you after you pull down the big lever.
Right.
But you vote by individual little levers.
Or you can take one lever if you want to vote the party line, whatever.
Right.
And so after everything was done, these scrolls were taken out of the back of the print-ematic.
Pardon?
Yeah, it's called the Printomatic.
Okay, yeah.
And these were taken out, and they were laid on tables, and then the count was given to us people who were interested for our different candidates.
Well, if you heard the beginning of the show, I talked about that and I didn't catch how that works.
Is that already done before done ahead of time?
No king.
Yeah, and I tell people, have them open the back so you can see it.
And so far, not a single precinct in this country have they ever allowed anyone to look at those pieces of paper in there.
And I've been telling people, fight them.
Oh, boy.
How do you get to do that?
These people seem like they guard that with a militancy that's scary.
You're talking billion-dollar business vote rigging in America.
It isn't just here, it isn't there, and it isn't dead people.
It's billion-dollar organized business.
They have a newsletter that every election supervisor gets, election administration report.
You can get it in the Library of Congress.
They meet.
Election supervisors meet in little Appalachia-type meetings in big resorts in America every year.
Oh, boy.
And they organize.
It's all the same procedure.
art bell
All right, well, he's asking, how do you fight it?
unidentified
First of all, the worry, get the book, get vote scam, and show it to your friends and neighbors because everything is in there.
We put it all in there.
And that was the reason for writing the book.
I didn't do it just as an exercise.
art bell
Well, it would seem then the only way that you could fight it is the way you fought it, by doing illegal things, breaking in, that sort of thing, right?
unidentified
Well, you know, you try lawsuits, but the judges that they put up there that you get are fixing judges, so you can't win on the lawsuit level.
So until people are willing to, I'm telling people to boycott their newspapers because the newspapers are in on it and running it.
Boycott the advertisers in the newspapers until it becomes an issue.
art bell
But why, you know, even if you assume that a lot of newspapers are crooked, in effect, part of the whole thing, surely they're all not.
And a lot of reporters would just love, just love to get their hands on something like this.
That's a big story.
unidentified
Find me one.
I'll talk to them.
All right.
art bell
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hi.
Hi.
Where are you?
I'm in Ellensburg, Washington.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
And my name is Craig, and I've been an election worker.
And I guess I ought to find out where they're paying $50 an hour because we get about a little over $5 an hour here.
No, what kind of equipment do you use?
Paper ballots and pencils.
Well, you don't have that thing.
Yeah, you got an honest election, probably.
I think so.
art bell
So you're saying they're not all crooked?
unidentified
No.
Wherever there's paper ballots, real paper ballots counted in the precincts?
They're not counted in the precinct.
No.
Oh, well, there's paper ballots run through a computer.
Correct.
Well, they're using them wherever the card reader is, and I don't know if it's in your area.
The whole ballot is run through.
Right, in the precinct or downtown?
Downtown at the county.
Well, you check it out downtown right there, and you see if there's a contingent of people who handle that paper ballot before it runs into the computer, and they're the people.
They don't get it.
The League of Women Voters gets it in the national coffin.
Well, I don't know.
I just, everything you talked about, I'm assuming that it's in bigger towns than ours because I don't see it.
Go check it out.
Maybe it is in your town.
I'm going to check it out.
art bell
All right.
Thank you, sir.
Wildgard Line, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hi.
Hello.
Earlier in the interview, you talked about Pat Buchanan and then said that you were going to come back to him later.
art bell
Yeah, where are you, sir?
unidentified
St. Louis.
art bell
St. Louis.
All right.
unidentified
Yeah, Missouri was the only state that had the media did not report on Missouri's primary.
Why?
Who won that primary in Missouri?
art bell
That's true.
They didn't.
unidentified
Who won that primary, sir?
The caucus level was won by Buchanan.
Right.
And then when we got to the state level, there was some shady things done.
And I want to go on for the Dole and Peace Coalition.
Well, anyway, Buchanan won it, and they couldn't report on it.
art bell
Right.
unidentified
And in Kansas, Dole, they didn't have a primary because they took a poll and found out that Dole was going to lose in his home state.
Yeah.
Like I said earlier, you talked about what Buchanan would do after Iowa, and then you kind of just glossed over it.
Honest People's Views 00:12:04
unidentified
No, I said what he did.
I said he went and he won in New Hampshire with the ad that he took out in the paper.
It's on his page for people who have the internet.
And then he went off with his tail between his legs after that.
And believe me, people have gone after him for this.
And I put forth a proposition that when they had the meeting down in Dallas with Ross Perot, and everybody was there from Pat and Republicans and Democrats that the done deals were done there.
And Pat was told he wasn't going to win, but he could go out and make noise.
Yeah.
And that's the name of the game.
And that Pat knows it.
And that on his page, it's Phil.
Just go to Pat Buchanan's page and you'll see all the vote scam stuff all over his page.
art bell
Well, I can do that better than that.
I can go to Pat Buchanan and I can ask him, what do you think he would say?
unidentified
CNN, he was on CNN, and I think it was Bernard Shaw or somebody said, you know they stole it from you in Arizona.
And he said, yes.
art bell
I mean, just a meek little yes.
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
Easter the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Good evening.
Hi.
art bell
Hello.
Where are you?
unidentified
Nashville.
art bell
All right.
wayne in phoenix
I work for a local television station and in the news department, and I know that every reporter there would love to take this kind of a story if the evidence is there.
art bell
Yeah, that's what I thought, too.
wayne in phoenix
It seems ridiculous that there's not a judge anywhere who's not corrupt, that there's not a reporter anywhere that's not in on the scam.
unidentified
I guarantee you, how do you vote in that county?
What kind of equipment?
wayne in phoenix
I honestly can't tell you because I just moved into the county.
unidentified
Okay, so that's your problem.
When you go investigate yourself, you're going to find out what I said.
And if you do try to do the story, they'll fire you.
David Burnham of the New York Times was fired, and we print that story in there for printing an article saying that Admiral Poindexter of the National Security Administration in the White House under Ronald Reagan did a report saying that the elections are rigged in America with computer and they fired Burnham for that.
wayne in phoenix
Well, I think it's certainly an issue worth being fired over if it's true.
art bell
Well, it is.
And next election, sir, call me.
unidentified
All right.
Yeah, me too.
Thanks.
Victoria House Press in New York City.
art bell
All right.
First time caller line, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hi.
Hi.
You have an interesting program tonight.
art bell
That's good.
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Texas.
art bell
Texas.
All right.
unidentified
I'm a precinct chairman here in Mitchell County, Precinct 4.
And I don't know where these guys get their idea, but they are, well, I don't want to say they're, well, let's just say they're complete.
I have worked the election here in Mitchell County since 1982.
What kind of equipment do you vote on?
Pardon me?
What kind of equipment do you vote on?
It's a paper ballot.
We print out X number of ballots, and it's almost like money.
We have to account for every single ballot.
Do you count it in the precinct?
We count it there at the precinct.
How?
By hand.
Through a computer?
By hand.
It's a paper ballot, and you count it by hand.
By hand.
Oh, well, you got it on the screen.
You put the ballot in a metal container that has no very slim slot.
Uh-huh.
And the top is secured by a lock.
Right.
It's only opened by one person.
That's the election judge.
Uh-huh.
And they count it by hand by three people three different times.
Then it's turned into the county registrar who also counts it.
And do you record it in the precinct on canvas sheets?
Right.
Well, we call a tally book.
Right.
Well, you're talking an honest election, sir.
And that's the only way it is.
My election is honest, and the rest of these are ill, not honest.
Correct.
You are what we want to go back to.
Sir, all the elections are honest.
art bell
Well, I don't know about that.
unidentified
I'm making money off of it.
And the elections are honest.
The people are honest.
There's too many people in the line of chain counting these ballots for one honest person to say, whoa, wait a minute.
There's something wrong here.
I appreciate what you're saying, but you are.
India, Israel, and Great Britain all are democracies that use paper ballots only, just like you do.
But the rest of this country uses computers.
So to say all people are honest, I appreciate your godliness, sir, but they're not.
art bell
Well, I'm really not going for either broad brush statement.
I don't think they're all rigged.
I don't think they're all honest.
unidentified
No, correct.
They're not all rigged.
There are places where election supervisors, and they've told me, North Carolina, I think, is one of them, they will not use anything but paper ballots because they know what's going on in the rest of the country.
Just like that lady said, she got into the room and they didn't know it, and they knew the computer was going to break down in a half hour.
When you get inside the computer part of it, and that's 70% of the country.
art bell
All right.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
Hi.
unidentified
Hi, Art Bell.
art bell
Yes, where are you?
unidentified
I'll turn down my radio.
art bell
Oh, good.
And also tell us where you are, please.
unidentified
I am in Houston.
art bell
Houston, all right.
unidentified
The gentleman that just called, I tend to agree with him.
I'm really surprised I got through to you, number one.
Also, Art, I'm not sure why you're even buying into this.
I have a lot of problem with this.
art bell
What makes you think I have?
unidentified
Well, I guess I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
art bell
All right, I'm listening.
I'm listening, and I'm listening to the callers.
To me, it's very important that we get the people that we're going to be able to do.
unidentified
I understand that, but this just sounds like one of those conspiracy theories.
art bell
I agree.
unidentified
And I mean, what, I mean, if you want to go with something like that, what makes us think, excuse me, I'm very nervous.
art bell
That's right.
unidentified
What makes us think that this is not some liberal conspiracy to convince people that they shouldn't vote in the upcoming election, excuse me, because, you know, perhaps they see Bob Dole coming and they can't do anything about it.
Well, did you hear all the other people calling you?
Of course I did.
But I thought, I mean, I have tried to get into the show.
I have tried to get into this show forever.
I didn't know I was going to be on this show till today.
Really?
Well, I have tried to get into the show forever, and I find it rather unusual that you know.
I didn't know I was going to be on the show till a few hours ago, right?
art bell
That's correct.
unidentified
So I didn't conspire with anybody.
It's all true.
And if you read the book, you'll know it.
I think you're doing yourself and people a disservice, ma'am, because reading is really an important thing to do.
And if you read the book, Vote Scam, The Stealing of America, that I bothered to write, you would walk away sick to your stomach about what's going on in this country.
Well, sir, I don't read.
I don't believe everything I read.
I mean, I read a great deal, and there's no way that I can believe everything.
Well, then go out and investigate how the votes counted.
That I intend to do.
When November comes, I'm going to follow you.
Videotape.
Vote somewhere.
Videotape the whole election from 7 o'clock at night on when the polls closed and follow your ballot if it's a computer ballot there in Houston, I think.
art bell
That's a fair challenge.
unidentified
I agree.
I agree.
I'm a teacher, and I seriously thought about what you were saying about them not letting people follow.
And I was thinking, gee, maybe I can take my kids and just say, well, we want to see what the process looks like.
Please, if you do, I'm writing a second book.
Call me at Victoria House Press in Louisiana.
Well, if I do it, yeah.
I mean, I'm not sure if I can get away with it, but if you're not sure you can get away with it, that should make you sick to your stomach.
Every part of the vote count in this country must be open and not secret.
If you have to hide in America because you can't get away with it, already you're buying into my game.
I understand and I think my love for this country just makes me, I mean, I don't want to believe something like this.
I don't want to find out that I don't have to.
Especially in Houston, my dear.
In Houston, you're going to find out it is true what I'm saying.
art bell
All right.
Well, I'm kind of with that lady.
I think I'm hesitant to buy into it.
I'm loath to buy into it, James.
I don't want to leave it.
unidentified
Where are you talking from?
What city?
art bell
A little town called Perump, Nevada, west of Las Vegas.
unidentified
Okay, but Vegas, you go check out Vegas and you'll find out everything.
art bell
Oh, I know.
I know what's going on.
unidentified
Okay.
art bell
I know the.
unidentified
Why are you hesitant?
art bell
Why am I hesitant?
unidentified
Because it's human nature to be.
art bell
Because I have an abiding faith in the majority of Americans being honest people.
Not all of them.
unidentified
It is the majority are honest, but the people who are running elections are behind closed doors.
And they're a handful compared to the population.
art bell
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
Hello.
Hello, where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Banning, California.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
Listening on K-News.
Right.
art bell
We didn't have a lot of time here, so what is your question?
unidentified
Okay.
Comment.
I was hearing about the paper ballots being honest.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
And I can say that is not always true.
All right.
art bell
Listen, I'm going to ask you to hold, James, you hold.
Well, continue to take calls.
This is productive.
unidentified
The trip back in time continues with Art Bell hosting Coast to Coast AM.
More somewhere in time coming up.
Tonight, featuring Coast to Coast A.M. from July 3rd, 1996.
art bell
Into the Independence Day weekend.
And so, I've got James Collier.
He wrote Vote Scam.
And we're going to get back into it and heavily on the phones this hour.
And back to all that in a moment.
James Collier wrote a very controversial book, to say the least, called Vote Scam.
We are now going to lay heavily into the phones.
If you just have joined us, you'll get the idea very shortly.
James, are you there?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
All right.
We're going to continue this hour, finish this hour, mainly with phone calls, if that's okay with you.
unidentified
Sure.
art bell
All right, here we go.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hi.
Good morning.
I'll go to topic in just a few seconds, but I just want to praise you to the skies.
For years, I've been waiting for a program that was like Long John Neville, that dabbled in Roswell and all the other good stuff, pyramids, and so forth.
art bell
All right, well, thank you.
unidentified
I'm very happy.
art bell
Where are you, by the way?
unidentified
I'm in Plantation, Florida, at WFTL.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
And you just came on about three weeks ago.
art bell
That's right.
unidentified
And I've been avidly listening.
I'm a transplanted New Yorker, and I do believe I heard about the problem of vote fraud in the Village Voice, either Staff Writer or the Alexander Cockburn press clip column.
And it was extremely disquieting then, and now that it seems to be further documented by your guests, it's even more disquieting.
Vote Rigging Revelations 00:13:02
unidentified
Well, there's a book out called Dirty Little Secrets, and it's all done, and that's a big right now.
Those two guys are doing the radio circuit, and they're talking about vote rigging across the country in Dirty Little Secrets.
I just want to extend this further, by the way.
I have always, and by way of disclaimer for the language I'm going to use, which is not foul, I'm going to say I have never been anything more than a liberal Democrat.
But we find, now going back to the language of communism and such, the running dogs of capitalism, the lackeys of capitalism, that is what the press is.
And consequently, when we have to look, I believe we should delve somewhat further and see who is being represented when we have votes being rigged.
But also a question arises: how is it that there were so many freshmen, Republicans, non-incumbent.
art bell
Uh-huh, good question.
That is.
That's a very good question.
unidentified
Well, I hope to make the program as interesting as I can.
art bell
All right, well, let's dig into that one then.
It's a good point.
How did we get those freshmen?
unidentified
The day after they got elected, it was harder to answer than it is now because I didn't have an answer.
But now, it's simple.
What have they done?
They were all GoPack.
They were all Newt Gingrich's GOPAC people.
And what have they done but vote away our civil rights?
And you know what all that?
We don't have to go into that.
They've done nothing.
They've followed the national agenda.
Nothing has changed.
It was all publicity.
art bell
All right, so it was just rigged to go there.
unidentified
And it was mainly Rush Limbaugh hype and all right.
art bell
First time caller line, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi, Art.
art bell
Hi.
unidentified
Enjoy your show.
art bell
Thank you.
unidentified
But I don't know about all this capitalist blackies and stuff.
I don't know.
This guy, you asked for precinct callers to call in.
art bell
Yes, uh-huh.
unidentified
You got two of them.
Both of them said they're square.
This guy said, oh, yeah, yours is square, but everybody else's is goofy.
No, one was talking paper ballots.
I'm sorry.
But both of them said they're square.
You agreed with both of them.
And the first four callers were people you knew.
art bell
Well, I think that he agreed with the first caller until he found out more about that particular process.
The second caller down in Houston, I think he agreed with fully.
unidentified
Well, you had two precinct callers.
No, no, the lady in Houston didn't know anything.
I said, go videotape.
What was the ledge?
It was two men.
All right, I can't help that.
But I mean, what's your point?
What's the point?
What are you talking about?
Well, read the book.
I don't know.
I mean, you're trying to.
I guess I just got to read the book.
Yeah.
Sorry.
art bell
All right.
Thank you.
Thank you.
unidentified
I mean, nobody who can I suggest reading.
It's a lost art in this country.
You can read the book and come away and say that.
I mean, to feel that you're clever, that nobody agreed or whatever.
You didn't hear the whole show.
Or you didn't listen.
art bell
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
Hi.
unidentified
Hi.
art bell
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Banning.
art bell
Banning, California.
Oh, that's right.
I'm sorry.
unidentified
I let you as much.
But the paper ballots.
How do they rig them?
Yeah.
Okay.
We're going back a few years.
I was in LA at the time working in the precinct.
And when the precinct would close, I was shown how to do it.
And we went through the ballots.
We counted them, we looked for ballots that were marked a way we didn't like, make a few extra marks on them, and invalidate them.
No, invalidation, yes.
Invalidation.
And another, the other big way.
art bell
No, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
You're saying you worked in L.A., you worked in an election, you took ballots that you didn't like and changed them.
So you were.
unidentified
That's what the League of Women Voters was doing with the computer ballot.
If you were voted for the wrong person, they punched the other person.
I participated in.
art bell
Why did you do that?
unidentified
Why did I do this?
I guess because I thought I could influence the election in a way that I wanted to.
art bell
God, maybe I'm wrong.
That's horrible.
I mean, to hear that from an American, it makes me sick.
Makes me sick.
unidentified
I want to tell you, Art, that I sat in the middle of Americans who were laughing at doing it.
And I know it makes people sick.
They don't like to hear this, like the last guy who called.
No, I don't.
They don't like to hear it.
But if they go out and investigate it themselves, and that's what I asked them to do, use a video camera and you check out how the vote is counted.
Find out who the computer programmer is who programs your computer in your area.
Check it out, and you won't be as smug as that last guy was.
art bell
Well, if nothing more than people going out with video cameras and following the election process comes out of this, then that will be good.
Wildgard.
unidentified
That's what I want people to do.
art bell
Wildguard Lynn, you're on the air with James Collier.
Hi.
unidentified
Hello?
art bell
Hello.
unidentified
Yeah, my name is Cliff.
art bell
Where are you, Cliff?
dr edgar mitchell
I live in Anderson, California, just below Lake Chester.
unidentified
All right.
dr edgar mitchell
How long is it going to take to correct this?
unidentified
As fast as the American public wakes up, I mean, I just got on Art Bell Show.
I've been doing lesser shows.
I did a few 50,000 a lot, but it's just gotten to Art Bell.
And if you understand what that means, it's the grassroots are growing.
And when the American public, this next primaries around the country, I'd like to see a million people with video cameras out there, and you'll all see what I'm saying.
Don't take my word for anything.
Check out your own elections.
And there's not one of you except paper ballot people who will come away with anything other than saying he was absolutely true.
And then there's going to be a revolution.
dr edgar mitchell
That brings my next question.
You wonder why the militias are all pissed off.
unidentified
They are because every one of them knows that there's the ballot box, the something box, and then the bullet box.
That's what they know they cannot get regressed of grievances at the ballot box.
And I've tried to talk to Bo Greites and say, you know, ballots, not bullets, but he won't talk to me.
You know, there's too much agenda out there.
People are getting rich.
There's too much money off of agenda against the little guy.
Yeah.
art bell
All right.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
Good evening.
Morning, actually.
Turn your radio off.
That's number one.
And tell us where you're calling from.
unidentified
Broward County.
art bell
Broward County, Florida.
Hey, that's all right.
unidentified
Go ahead.
Okay.
I just want to say that I was also in North Carolina.
I was a judge up there, and we did have paper counting.
And at least, well, in all our elections, we did the counting, and then we called it indirectly.
I called it in.
Right.
North Carolina election supervisors told me, and I just said that before, that they will not go to computer because they know everyone else is rigging them.
Right.
Okay, but now here in Broward County.
Jane Carroll is your election supervisor.
Right.
Right.
Anyway, we also count them, and we're very careful, and we have so many ballots that we have to account for.
Absentee.
By the way, you use computers there.
However, yeah, right.
However, we take them over then, and then they throw them in the computer, and who knows what happens.
Right, and believe me, I know Jane Carroll real well, and she knows what I think of her, and I don't have to say more to all you people reading between the lines.
Right.
And as a matter of fact, I was down there, and I was on a radio show, Mike Farrell's show in West Palm Beach last week.
Oh, were you?
And Jackie Winchester, the election supervisor, calls in.
And I said, and I call her a liar over the phone to the public because she says, I said, Jackie, when the ballots come in, do they go up a backstairs?
Now, listen to me, people, around America, with computer ballots.
They're always brought up a back step.
That's part of the procedure, up a back elevator where you can't follow them.
They're not done in public.
Well, we hand them in at a little opening in a warehouse.
Right.
Or they're on a back street.
In Downey, California, anyway, Jackie, I said, do you put header cards in front of the deck of cards before you read it in that ballot multiplexer?
And she says, yes.
Well, header cards tell the computer how to read the deck, the cards that come after it.
And so that's across America.
You people will videotape that, header cards being put in front of your vote cards.
And those header cards' only purpose is to tell it how to read what comes next.
art bell
All right, ma'am, thank you.
I don't know how to react to what I'm hearing.
It's disturbing.
It's upsetting.
I hope to hell it's not true.
And I hope a bunch of people go out and follow the election process this next election.
And I suspect they will.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
Hi.
unidentified
Yeah, I'm calling from the Monterey Peninsula.
I heard that the state of Nevada has passed or is passing a law that you can't bring cameras in because it will intimidate the workers.
What do you know about that?
I don't know anything about it.
The guy who would know is the guy named Tom, and I guess he doesn't want me to give him his last name, but everybody goes to him there.
I have a question about here.
We had a primary.
There was a Republican running against another Republican.
The guy was furious because he knew he should win, but his opponent was consistently ahead because the station that was doing the live coverage was using the Secretary of State's office in Sacramento, where, you know, the mainframe.
All this stuff was supposed to go up there.
But nothing was happening.
I called the local registrar and found that the guy was winning two to one.
He was relieved, of course, but what was going on there?
In the state of California, a group out of Irvine, California called DMF.
I don't remember what DMF stands for.
It's a company.
I did three hours on Pacifica Radio there out of L.A. in 92.
And we tracked it down then with the John Rappaport.
And DMF runs the elections for the state of California.
One other question, and by the way, the reel of tape that the vote is counted on in L.A. goes 20 miles away to Downey to be counted.
Well, you can invalidate a ballot, and I'm trying to explain this to Art by just punching an extra hole with it.
Vote for only three of the following.
Oh, no, there's six on the list.
You punch the extra hole.
art bell
I'm with you.
That's what that guy in California just said he had been doing.
He admitted he was.
unidentified
Exactly.
The question is, if it's counted at the precinct level, we still have cards here, the paper.
If it's counted, how can they invalidate it when it gets to the county seat and the main election?
In other words, how can they invalidate what's already been validated on the precinct level?
What does that tell you?
In other words, if all of the ballots that go in have been looked at by three people right here in our precinct, and yet they get invalidated later or through a recount.
Oh, yes, okay, yes.
They go tamper with them, right?
art bell
Thanks, Laura.
Have a good morning.
unidentified
I want to tell you a story about New Orleans.
And on December 3rd, this last primary, the primary was the 21st, three weeks before, the election supervisor was found in the alley with a bullet in his head behind a dumpster.
A woman named Sue Bernaker was running against the election supervisor's uncle.
His name was Nick Gambaluka, 70-year-old councilman in Jefferson Parish.
He would fall asleep at council meetings.
Sue was real popular.
Polls showed she couldn't lose, 41 years old.
And so on election night, she loses.
And she goes down after the election, and she videotapes the computers in the warehouse.
And she pushes a button, and it votes for her.
She can tell because there's a liquid crystal display about thigh high that no one would ever look at, and she didn't either until she scanned the machine with the camera.
And then she pushed it four times.
It voted for her.
The fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth.
It voted for Nick Gambaluka.
His nephew, Anthony Gambaluca, was found with a bullet in his head.
art bell
Well, you know.
unidentified
And then, wait, so she goes, 20 machines, same thing.
She takes it to the TV stations.
They play it.
The newspaper, the Times Picky Yoon, wouldn't write a word, nor would they write that Anthony Gambaluko was found dead with a bullet in his head.
Making Votes Count 00:15:58
unidentified
And no investigation.
And she sues, and the judge she gets in normal rotation is taken off the case.
The fixing judge is put in.
He dismisses the case in five minutes.
art bell
If all you're saying is true, or even a healthy portion of it, aren't you worried you're going to be found with a bullet in the back of your head?
unidentified
Well, no, I have that in the book.
It says, the first question everybody asked me is, aren't you afraid you're going to get killed, and have you gone to 60 minutes?
And they attempted to, and you can read about that in the book.
And we went to 60 minutes, and Mike Wallace, investigative reporter Gayton Fonzie, he was in the one of the one of the top two investigators in the country under Seymour Hirsch, wrote a story that he had spoken to Brian Ross, NBC's top investigator, who said Mike Wallace told him, Brian Ross, that he had the biggest story in America, that he had interviewed me, and that it was the biggest vote fraud story,
and then he gets to New York and CBS says, forget it.
So when I wrote the book, I give the book to Mike, and he says, Jim, as far as that book is concerned, I have permanent Alzheimer's disease.
art bell
Do you have that recorded or documented anywhere?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
Yeah?
You have Mike Wallace?
unidentified
Believe me, the story of Mike Wallace is in the book, and the lead paragraph in Gayton Fonzi's story about Brian Ross is in there.
He wrote that.
art bell
No, I'm asking whether you have all us on videotape or audio tape or any recorded form saying that.
unidentified
What Mike Wallace said?
Yeah.
No, I don't.
But I'm saying it over the air, and if Mike Wallace wants to dispute it, I'm willing to go on it.
It's in the book.
art bell
All right.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hello.
Hello.
It seems to me that something also very topical and parallel to the Russian elections, and I also had something in the New York Two recent issue where a Russian diplomat was quoted by the author as saying, yes, we know that.
Everybody knows that.
Yeltsin rigged the elections.
He's in illegally.
But you see, he has just bombed the parliament and killed about 140 elected parliament members.
Therefore, we didn't want to embarrass him or say anything against him.
And it's incredible that this guy that has taken over the media, that gets billions of dollars in effect campaign contributions from the West to be, as Henry Collier said, a capitalist lobby for the Western corporations to rape for the Soviet Union.
Even one of his own allies, Javlitsky, has said that he has rigged the election.
art bell
All right, look, we will ask about the Russian elections.
We're coming down to the bottom of the hour.
Where are you calling from, sir?
unidentified
Lorain, Ohio.
art bell
All right.
When we come back, James, I'm going to ask you about the Russian elections, the ones that just concluded with Boris Yeltsin having angina pains and yet clearly winning.
unidentified
I think it's about 55%, something like that.
art bell
So that when we come back, James Collier, the author of Vote Scam, When We Return, I'm Art Bell.
unidentified
You're listening to Art Bell Somewhere in Time.
Tonight, featuring Coast to Coast AM, from July 3rd, 1996.
Somewhere in Time.
Tonight, featuring Coast to Coast A.M. from the 3rd of July, 1996.
art bell
The author of Vote Scam, James Collier, is my guest for the remainder of the half hour.
Next time you go to vote, you'll probably remember this program.
Back now to James Collier.
James, you're back on the air again.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
And I want to give you an opportunity before we go any further and run out of time or something to give the information on how to get your book and or I think the videotape is very important.
Right.
So tell them how to get it.
unidentified
All right.
The book is Vote Scam, The Stealing of America.
And it's James and Kenneth Collier.
You can go to your bookstore and they'll order it for you.
art bell
All right, good.
unidentified
All right, now let me tell you something.
You know, the lady who called in who said it was a liberal conspiracy.
Yes.
You can't get much more conservative than William Buckley, can you?
William F. Buckley has a magazine called The National Review.
art bell
Right.
unidentified
The June 17th issue on the cover this year, Rich Lowry, L-O-W-R-Y, the national political reporter for that magazine, the National Review, wrote an article called Vote Fraud in America, Early and Often.
Vote fraud used to be a crude tool of machine politicians.
Now it is skillfully engineered by liberal reformers.
And just let me read you this little bit.
On election day, five men show up at a post office carrying luggage.
Their bags are stuffed with 1,100 ballots, which will constitute 20% of the vote cast that day.
Some of the ballots have probably been filled out by the men themselves.
Others have been wrung from voters under the threat that they will lose their government benefits if they don't go along.
The fraudulent ballots will help maintain a power in power, a corrupt elite that regularly manipulates elections to its advantage no matter how people vote at the polls.
And this was done in Greene County, Alabama.
And I'll read one more paragraph.
In recent years, evidence of vote fraud has cast doubt on the results of several statewide and federal elections, a stunning failing of democratic practice in the 90s, America, yet fraud still gets short shrift in the national press, except for a June 1995 Reader's Digest article, and I told you that was by Trevor Armbrewster, and a chapter in Larry Sabateau and Glenn Simpson's new book, Dirty Little Secrets, an excellent,
thorough account which touches on most of the cases dealt with here.
Vote fraud has gotten little play.
So for the people out there who think they're so clever and that I'm trying to put something over on them, that's William F. Buckley, and he did a good report, and he didn't put vote scam in it.
art bell
All right, James, today in modern America, right now, what percentage of elections in this country would you guess are fixed?
unidentified
Well, I know North Carolina isn't.
art bell
No, no, no.
unidentified
I would say 90%.
art bell
90%.
All right.
First time caller line, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hello.
Yes.
bill hamilton
There was another news magazine article that if someone doesn't want to invest the $10 up front in the book, which I have read and I think is excellent, there's an article in Science News, October 30, 1993.
The title is Making Votes Count: How to Steal an Election the Modern Way.
art bell
All right, look, since you have read Vote Scam, what was your assessment of it?
bill hamilton
I think it's an even-handed presentation of the information.
I know that the Colliers were running for an election.
They were trying to, his brother, I think Ken, was running for office.
art bell
That's right.
bill hamilton
And since then, I have watched the elections around me and news on television, and it fits.
The book describes what happens when you look at election return.
art bell
All right, sir.
I appreciate the call and the review on the book.
Wildcard line, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hi.
Yes, hi.
I'm definitely going to get that book.
art bell
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Sacramento, California.
Okay.
betty eadie
And in our county, the way they did it was our voting place, our polling place, just disappeared.
And so I called up and asked why, and they said they couldn't afford to have it there.
unidentified
There wasn't enough people.
And yet the houses had grown.
betty eadie
It was middle, upper income, or middle-class, you know, nice homes, a predominantly Republican area.
So I called and asked why, and they said, well, you'll have to mail them in.
Now, what I found strange was you have to do the mail-in early, but they don't count those until late.
In other words, they don't count those until last.
unidentified
Right.
Mail-in across the country, the state of Oregon and everywhere is a license to steal.
Yeah, and they don't count them in the same place.
And I saw a van full of votes going to a building.
I inquired about it.
They did not count votes there.
betty eadie
I did that quite cleverly, I think.
And I think it's a shame.
unidentified
What I want to ask you is this.
betty eadie
Therefore, isn't it likely that the press and the media would know for sure and be able to say with certainty, Clinton, you've got to give it to him.
unidentified
Clinton's going to win.
Because they know he is, because they know how they control this.
betty eadie
And it's very easy to punch a button on a computer and out of zero.
unidentified
And there's so many ways.
betty eadie
What way would you suggest, other than following the van with your vote in it and watching the person count it, what would you suggest a person?
What are our rights when it comes to watching counting?
unidentified
How public is it?
It has to be totally public, but almost everywhere it's totally secret.
And you'll find that out as soon as you start to check.
art bell
All right.
On behalf of the broadcast and news media, James, I've got to tell you this.
You think a lot of them are in on it.
I think that a lot of them are lazy.
And I think that accounts for more of the go-along to get along than does conspiracy.
unidentified
No, the upper level knows.
Absolutely knows.
I mean, the reporter, like the guy from Nashville, he isn't assigned to it.
If he was, he'd find out and he would get fired if he tried to do it.
art bell
Yeah, I'm not calling him lazy.
I'm just calling most election reporters.
You know, they sit there and read the numbers off the streets.
unidentified
Yeah, that's that they're assigned.
They're puppy dogs.
Young.
art bell
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier, huh?
unidentified
Hi, Art and James.
I'm calling you from Omaha.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
And I wanted to tell the Omaha World Telegram.
Is that the paper there?
Omaha World Herald.
Herald, they control the voting machines in 519 counties in America.
Well, you know, I wanted to ask you something about.
You mentioned American Information System.
Yeah, that's them.
They own it.
Okay, I had a conversation two days ago with the founder and CEO of that organization.
And I just wanted to know your take about that.
I heard you mention them earlier, but I wanted.
What did you talk to him about?
He owns AIF.
art bell
He owns the Omaha world here?
You mean he owns, all right, he owns the actual voting machines?
Is that what you're saying?
unidentified
He owns the company.
As far as I know, the people who own the Omaha World Herald are different from the people that own American Information.
I got right here in front of me the names of both.
I got the stockholder list.
There's five people.
art bell
Why is that, though, necessarily?
unidentified
Well, because if the news media owns more than 10% of the voting precincts in this country, how many do we don't know?
We just found that out.
And it took a long time to find that out.
When news media owns the voting machine, I don't think that's good.
art bell
Well, it may or may not be good.
unidentified
I know, but it may or may not be good, but it should be made public.
Okay.
art bell
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier, right?
unidentified
Thank you, calling from San Francisco.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
I'd like to corroborate what Mr. Collier says.
It's absolutely correct.
Header cards, I had steamed them in my precinct in San Francisco.
Intentional invalidation of the voter cards to disqualify them are correct.
But this is not what turned me off on the entire system.
There's a much bigger fraud.
What?
And I'm talking about the Anglo-American establishment, the fact that the Council on Foreign Relations has every election sewed up, which makes our experience in the presidential elections all theater.
Well, that's true.
They're all CFR.
Yeah, it's the perpetuation of the illusion of the two-party system.
Right.
And that's what it is, an illusion.
And we print in the book, and this is a great chapter in the book, where we get all the conspirators in one room in Washington.
The answer to David Rockefeller.
Yeah, but now listen to this.
This is interesting.
In the room is the head of ABC News, Runarlich, Leonard Grossman of NBC.
I forgot who CBS was.
John Sununu chairs the meeting.
Catherine Graham is at the meeting.
CFR members.
All the media is there, and they say there's no media here today.
We can speak freely.
And they're the ones who control the vote count in America.
Well, they own the count.
This perpetuates the illusion of a two-party system, which there is none.
There is none.
No, it's one party.
It's called Indispensable Enemies, and they pretend that they're too...
Oh, I forgot.
The head of the Democratic National Committee was there, Kirk, and the head of the Republican National Committee, Ferencal.
We're meeting together in the same room plotting when we print the transcript of the meeting.
art bell
Where did you get a transcript of the meeting?
unidentified
From the people who printed the transcript.
The things that we did, I mean, in the back of the tape, there's a sniper's nest in Dallas.
The Watergate was never bugged.
It was a third-degree burglary, but it was never bugged.
That's why Woodward and Bernstein never won the Pulitzer Prize.
All right, because the media knew it was never bugged.
It was a war between Richard Nixon and Catherine Graham over her television license in Miami for rigging the elections there, and Nixon was going to get her.
So she had to get him a federal offense, so they pretended there was a bug, and that whole story is documented in FBI files in the book.
art bell
All right, wildcard line, you're on the air with James Collier.
Would have been.
No, I guess we missed somebody.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
Hi.
unidentified
Hi, thanks a lot.
This is Madison.
Just a quick question.
How do you think it relates to poll-taking and all the polls we always do?
They own the polls.
The media owns the polls.
Check it out.
It's ABC poll, NBC Poll, CBS Poll, Washington Post poll.
What do you think of that, Art?
I've argued with you about polls before.
Well, look, they own the exit poll, and they own what comes after 7 o'clock.
They own the exit poll.
art bell
They own the polls.
They own the polls.
But if you, for example, go to Gallup and Gallup ABC.
Yeah.
Gallup or NBC Wall Street Journal, I think.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
If you go, there is a scientific methodology to the polling.
unidentified
Yeah, but people lie terribly.
art bell
People lie.
unidentified
Terribly.
There's a whole report in there done by a university how people lie.
And then we point out the exit polls in New Hampshire where Bush against Dole.
Polls And Surprises 00:02:26
unidentified
Bush was losing in 88, 9%, according to Roper and everybody else, Gallup, in that election.
He wins it by 9 points.
An 18-point turnaround in six hours.
art bell
Okay, what do you think about the current polling showing Clinton somewhere between 15 and 17 points ahead?
unidentified
I don't know because I tell you, Dole is such a wuss that it's probably true.
I mean, I don't think they have to rig that election, but I don't know.
art bell
I have no idea.
unidentified
I mean, the one who would have won would have been Buchanan, and they know it.
All right.
art bell
East of the Rockies, you're on the air with James Collier.
unidentified
Hello.
Yeah, Art.
This is really interesting.
Sounds like something I want to do.
What do you know about Western Michigan?
Well, I'm from Detroit.
Pardon me?
I'm from Detroit.
Yeah, I don't know the situation in Michigan at all.
We use paper ballots.
Real paper counted in the precinct or counted by computer?
I don't know.
Okay, well, check it out and use a video camera.
art bell
Yeah, that's the answer.
Go find out.
If nothing else comes of this but that, then we're on to something.
unidentified
Well, you and I have a rendezvous with Destiny after these elections because I want everybody to call me at Victoria House Press in New York City with their video.
I want millions.
I want to say, we got it.
art bell
Yup, yup.
I, too, I voted for Perot.
Everybody I knew voted for Perot.
unidentified
And I tell you, whole cities, everybody voted for Perot, but they said he'd get 19%, and he got it schematically across the board.
art bell
Well, up to 25, 26, 200.
unidentified
Yeah, but they averaged it.
19.
He got it.
They said he would, and he did.
art bell
Yeah, he did.
Well, listen, James, we're at the end of it.
It has been a pleasure having you on.
If nothing else, it'll give people a lot to think about.
I suspect you will launch many a video camera into many a polling place across the country.
unidentified
Well, that's what got Rodney King there.
So that's the beginning.
I tell you, video cameras are going to level this country that people have a weapon in their hand.
Five O'clock Back There 00:03:32
art bell
They do.
It's true.
And I want to thank you for being my guest.
It's got to be what?
Just about five o'clock back there in New York.
unidentified
It is.
The sun is coming up.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
I got off 4th of July to sleep.
art bell
All right.
Get some sleep then, and hope the fireworks don't wake you up, James.
unidentified
Okay.
art bell
Thank you.
That's James Collier, author of Vote Scam.
We'll be back with open lines in a moment.
And that should give you all something to think about.
I don't know about you.
I don't want to believe it.
I hope it's not true.
A little part of me suspects that some of it may be.
We'll be back.
unidentified
This is Premier Networks.
That was Art Bell hosting Coast to Coast AM on this Somewhere in Time.
Somewhere in Time with Art Bell continues, courtesy of Premier Networks.
art bell
Talk radio, rock and roll type in the nighttime.
Good morning, everybody.
I'm Art Bell.
Good to be here.
Now, I read you that truly disgusting toilet story earlier.
And it figures.
David from Visalia, California writes, Here's a true story, Art.
It is true.
In northern Wisconsin, there is a remote tavern in the woods that comes alive every deer season.
The bar, which overlooks the lake, has a large window, so one might enjoy the view.
Keep an eye on the outhouses.
The tavern has two outside outhouses for use by customers.
The owner of this tavern put a speaker under the seat in the women's outhouse that is connected to a microphone behind the bar.
Whenever a woman goes to use the outhouse, the owner tells all the men in the bar to watch this.
After about 30 seconds, he keys up the mic and says, Lady, can you please move over to the next hole?
I'm down here painting.
Well, you ought to see your red face as she quickly emerges, looking back to see if she's being followed.
Oh, that's the kind of thing that women's organizations will string you up for, nail you to the wall for, and bury you forever for, David.
So it's a good thing it happens way out there.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
art bell
Going once.
Going twice, gone.
Wildcard Line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Yes, happy birthday, America.
art bell
Well, yes, indeed.
unidentified
I'm calling from Reno, Nevada.
art bell
Yes, sir.
Of course.
unidentified
Hey, you know, I got a guest suggestion for you.
You do?
An author of a book about 1982 called Tango with a Chupacabra by Nemo Maraschino.
Sneak Premieres and Legal Scripts 00:04:32
unidentified
I want to get in touch with him.
art bell
His name is as hard to say as the chupacabra.
unidentified
Nemo Maraschino, yeah.
He also wrote another book called Every Man is Atomic.
art bell
Every man is atomic.
unidentified
That's right.
Hey, you know, good, I'm going.
art bell
I think he wigged out on us.
You know, as you listen to something like that, you sort of picture somebody self-immolating.
I had a guest on that once.
Even got a picture.
It's really pathetic.
All you can see is a guy's leg, and the rest of it's all burned up.
It's horrible.
I mean, it sounds like he might have just sort of caught on fire and, you know.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
Let me turn this down.
art bell
Yeah, turn your radio down.
unidentified
I'm sorry about that.
art bell
Sorry.
unidentified
I have an unusually stupid question for you, sir.
art bell
I get them all the time.
unidentified
It's quite fun.
Okay.
How do people of your statue, of your reputation, get a hold of copies of scripts of movies?
You kept saying that you have a copy of the script of Independence Day.
art bell
They have secret friends in Hollywood.
unidentified
Okay, then how do people of my statue, who has no secret friends, get to see these movies, like these people who get, they pay anywhere from five to ten dollars and go into the theater and see them?
That doesn't.
I'm talking about the same time of the.
At the same time, the critics are watching them because they get.
They get to watch them before everyone else does.
art bell
Well, that's true, you mean the premieres, right?
unidentified
How do, how do I get to see these premieres?
art bell
You sneak in.
I want to do it legally really yes, you got false credentials showing you to be Siskel and Ebert's brother or something, and I don't know sir, I don't know.
unidentified
Well, when you find out, would you please announce it?
I'll announce it when I find out.
Okay, that's only fair, wouldn't you say?
art bell
Well, I don't know if fair is the right word.
unidentified
Okay, how about only your word of honor, my word of honor?
art bell
Um well, all right, so I, I will put out the word.
How do you sneak into a premiere legally legal, legally?
Well oh legally.
unidentified
Yes, I want to make sure everyone knows I'm there.
That way I won't get in any trouble.
art bell
Well, what do you do for a living?
unidentified
I'm a security guard, all right?
art bell
Well, give it up and become a movie critic and then legally, you can go in and you can see the movie.
Well, that'll work, that's right.
Besides, it's probably more fun being a security guard anyway.
unidentified
No, I get paid to stay awake and I have insomnia, go figure.
art bell
All right, where are?
Where are you?
unidentified
By the way, I'm in Kansas.
art bell
Kansas, KCMO all right.
Kansas City all right.
Thank you very much.
I don't know you become a movie critic?
Yeah, I've got a good friend in Hollywood, a secret friend, whose identity I protect carefully, and he provides me with scripts, which is, as you well know, I don't give away.
I never give away movies on the air.
I could have.
I, I knew about ID4 a month and a half ago.
Have I said anything?
No, so I protect my sources.
Some guy called up last night said I'm gonna get him fired.
No, you're not, you're not.
You're never gonna find out who he is.
It's all secret.
First time caller line.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Hello hi, Art.
This is Ron from Stockton, California.
art bell
How you doing?
unidentified
I'm doing pretty good, Art.
I wanted to ask you two questions.
art bell
Them seeds that that guy sent you yes, the demon seeds, yes.
Did you ever figure about giving them to Linda and see what she can do with them, or no, it's, it's my, it's my responsibility.
You're just gonna put them away and just keeping them in a dry, cool place.
Uh-huh and uh.
I I don't know what i'm gonna do with them.
I have no idea.
What do you think I ought to do with them?
unidentified
Well, it's very interesting from the what you said last time about them.
With that you know what you read.
What that guy said.
art bell
That's kind of freaky.
Can you believe they actually put an ad in the Seattle Times?
Uh-huh and uh.
It got responded to and then I got this letter.
Amazing huh really, that's strange.
unidentified
All right, another thing I wanted to ask you too.
Um, you did it last time, the space shuttle uh, when's it supposed to come down?
Domestic Honeybees Update 00:08:20
unidentified
Uh, come back into.
art bell
I will let you know.
I don't know yet, but if it comes down at a time that will be advantageous for all of us, did you see it last time?
unidentified
You know what, Art?
You said to be out there 15 minutes to 4.
art bell
Yep.
unidentified
I got out there at 10 minutes.
I live in Stockton.
I got out there at 10 minutes to 4.
All I seen was the white streak.
Came back in the house, put my headset back on, and turned the TV on.
And you know that thing was already in Florida?
art bell
Oh, yeah.
unidentified
Landing?
art bell
Well, it moves right along.
unidentified
Oh, boy, it must, because that was pretty fast.
Yep.
Thank you, Art.
art bell
All right, sir.
Take care.
A lot of people got to see it because we knew exactly when it was coming in, and we had everybody run outside, and so a lot of people saw it was really cool.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
Hello, my God.
I'm always on the cutting edge through my whole life.
The only time I ever got you before was almost at closing time in the morning.
Hi, sir.
It's such a delight to talk to you after trying for weeks and weeks of getting in contact with you.
Where are you?
art bell
Are you?
unidentified
I'm calling from St. Paul, Minnesota.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
And I'd like to say to you that many of the things that you stand for, that you believed in, and now that you've got your kingdom of people listening to you, I want you to consider for a minute of the many, many people who have felt like you all their lives have been institutionalized, looked on with raised eyebrows, called queers, nerds, and everything else, and never have been able to get the belief system that you have got now that is just remarkable.
And we're all in awe of the ability that you've had to come to your pinnacle, where we all are still the submerged people, probably some of those that don't vote, because, see, with your program tonight about fixed voting and all that, many of us don't vote because we believed a long time ago that the system was a fake.
You see, so many of us who do not take part of the general activity of people in the United States have already lost faith.
art bell
Well, yeah, but you might want to vote just so you can make it harder for them to fix it.
They've got to work harder.
unidentified
Well, thanks for the delightful thought.
art bell
That's the best I could do on short notice.
unidentified
Well, bless you.
Hey, listen, you went a little crazy, added to that forest story with the, you know, the incense in Titling in the Forest and the Giant.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
I've been way far out on this, too.
Whenever there's a mountain that has, what do you call it?
A mountain has this explosion of and throws out all this stuff.
art bell
They're called volcanoes.
unidentified
Volcanoes.
Sometimes we're speechless when we talk to you, you know.
And anyway, I've always had this crazy idea that there is a very advanced civilization within the core of the earth, and that's how they throw out their excrement, which is usually, what is it, pure protein or pure.
art bell
You mean a volcano is like the underground people pooping on us?
unidentified
Well, the opposite way, you know.
art bell
I get it.
It's a horrible picture, but I get it.
unidentified
If they were to evacuate the inner things that they are working with, it has to do with some way to put it through the surface.
And it's actually not a foreign or ugly thing to happen to us because it usually feeds our surface earth.
But I often think about that wild thing, you know.
There has to be a reason for that.
Where does it come from?
art bell
I don't know, ma'am.
I don't know.
I've got to run.
Thank you very much for the call.
And that's the first time I've heard volcanic...
That was awful.
Where did she get that?
Where did these people get these things?
First time call online.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
Good evening, Mr. Bell.
This is Bill from Portland.
art bell
Hello, Bill.
unidentified
How are you doing?
art bell
Well, fine.
unidentified
Great.
I had a couple questions for you.
Yes.
being I wonder if he was in line if something was to happen to Yeltsin and the other question being it'd be Levitt I'm sure Oh, really?
art bell
Yeah.
And Levitt is considered to be a fairly honest, straightforward, ironhand sort of reformer kind of guy.
So might be all right.
unidentified
And the other question being, did Collier mention anything about the Russian election?
art bell
You know, it's a funny thing.
I was ready to ask him about the Russian elections.
Somehow I got, we got ran out of time or something, but he apparently believes the, and so do a lot of other people, that the Russian elections were rigged.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
Now, if they were rigged in favor of democracy, is that a good thing or a bad thing?
unidentified
Well, that's a good question.
art bell
You've got to think about that one a little bit, huh?
unidentified
That's right.
Well, you have a good night.
art bell
All right.
Thank you, and take care.
You do have to think about that one a little bit, don't you?
I mean, what if they would have gone back to communism, but somebody managed to rig it so that the reforms continued.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi, Art.
Good morning.
I haven't heard you do an update lately on arts parts, and I was just wondering what's the status of that right now.
art bell
More serious all the time.
There's going to be a big update on them this Sunday on Dreamland.
They're undergoing some very significant testing at the moment.
unidentified
Okay, very good.
Well, we'll listen in for that.
art bell
All right, thank you.
All of the rare metals people, all of the scientists, everybody who's looked at it on the webpage, and they've been pointing scientists to the webpage, all of the testing they have done, there is nothing like what we've got.
unidentified
Nothing.
art bell
Anywhere.
Nobody has made it.
Nobody knows how to make it.
Nobody knows exactly what it would be used for, except that it has anti-gravitic properties or power-gathering properties.
unidentified
It's very serious.
art bell
Very serious.
And I can't really tell you right now about all of the testing.
We don't want to give it away for some very important reasons.
But that's where it is.
You'll hear more this Sunday.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified
Art Bell.
art bell
Yes, sir.
dr albert taylor
Yes, this is Port Townsend, Washington.
unidentified
Good.
I'm a little upset.
dr albert taylor
I've been walking around the last couple days.
unidentified
You said something about the bees and the frogs?
art bell
90% of domestic honeybees are dead.
All of the wild domestic honeybees are dead.
unidentified
So it seems.
art bell
No, it's true.
unidentified
Yeah, well, that's the way it is around here.
There are virtually no bees.
There's fields full of flowers and no bees.
art bell
That's right.
unidentified
There's a lake up the road.
It used to be so loud last year with the frogs that you could not hear yourself think.
art bell
And now the frogs are gone, yeah.
unidentified
No frog.
Is this all over the world?
What is it?
art bell
Well, I don't know whether it's all over the world.
I do know it is in this country, and it's pretty worrisome.
Now, the domestic bees are supposedly getting taken down by some sort of mite.
Nobody knows why the frogs are disappearing.
unidentified
Well, they're gone.
art bell
Well, one day, maybe we'll wake up and it will be people disappearing.
Don't want to.
unidentified
See, this is kind of the thing.
dr albert taylor
You know, you've been talking about the quickening so much, and, you know, we're in it.
unidentified
It's not like it's coming around, you know.
It's like this is one of the years that it's supposed to be.
dr albert taylor
And I look around, and yeah, there's all this stuff going on in the world, but you compare it to World War I or World War II, you know, the human catastrophe is nowhere near that level.
unidentified
But the ecological catastrophe, boom.
art bell
Well, I mean, what would you do if you looked down in the middle of the night, you woke up in your bed and you looked down and there was some horrible-looking, deformed, mangled, ecologically screwed-up creature at the foot of the bed telling you to come along, it's your turn.
Daytime Calls Mystery 00:09:36
unidentified
Does he have a spaceship?
No, he has an old garbage truck.
Sounds like we've already got them.
art bell
All right.
Thank you very much for the call.
unidentified
Back to those celebrating the weekend.
art bell
West of the Rockies, you are upon the air.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi, good morning.
art bell
Good morning.
unidentified
Grand Junction, Colorado, calling.
art bell
Yes, ma'am.
unidentified
Oh, Art.
If you were on in the daytime, you would be number one.
art bell
Well, I don't want to be on in the daytime.
unidentified
I know that, but you have the most interesting guest, Mr. Collier.
It seems like he has put so much detail and study into this book.
I already ordered it on that 800 number, and I hope I have it maybe Friday.
I know I won't.
But there is so much believability there.
art bell
Well, I hope there's.
It worries me.
I don't want there to be a lot of believability there.
It would be, as a previous caller said, we'd have a revolution.
unidentified
Well, I'll tell you what happened with the recent election.
It's just a little short.
I went in to vote.
I voted on those punch cards, and two things you voted for, only two things.
I pulled the card out.
There were three holes in it.
And I took her over to the table and showed the people who were in charge.
And she checked all the other cards, and sure enough, they were already pre-cut with one notch in it.
So I got home.
I called the Daily Sentinel, which is my newspaper.
I called our local talk show, which we used to have at that time, and they both followed up on it, but nothing.
And the lady at the voting precincts followed up and called me back and said, well, you know, those cards come to us that way from Texas.
We have nothing to do with that.
And I wanted to tell you one more thing.
I, too, was a Perot voter.
Now, do you think our votes were just erased somewhere?
art bell
I don't want to believe that.
I just don't want to believe that.
unidentified
I love the way you use the English language.
It is so interesting.
You never use the same word twice in a sentence, and even the whole night sometimes, I think, is he ever going to say that word again?
art bell
I wonder how I do that.
unidentified
I don't know, but it's just so exciting.
art bell
All right.
Thank you very much.
unidentified
Thank you.
art bell
Take care.
Colorado.
Is that true?
Don't I say paradigm shift twice in a night?
Quickening.
Now, there's a word I use frequently, twice in a night.
I do that.
East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Good morning.
Hi.
unidentified
Hi.
Hi, Art.
How are you doing?
art bell
Fine.
Where are you?
unidentified
Nashville.
art bell
Nashville.
unidentified
All right.
Hey, the phrase rigged in favor of democracy.
art bell
Yeah, that's what I said.
unidentified
I heard it.
I just had to tell you, that is a definition of an oxymoron.
art bell
I know, mutually, I know.
But I stand with the question.
If we were to learn that that had been rigged in favor of democracy or reforms.
unidentified
That makes no sense.
That's an oxymoron.
art bell
Well, it may, but it makes sense that the CIA.
unidentified
Oh, well, I don't want to get into that one.
art bell
Well, you know I'm right.
Right about what?
You know, I'm right, that it makes sense at the CIA, and you know the CIA was out there doing their darndest for Yeltsin.
unidentified
Yep, but you have to ask yourself, why and do we really know?
art bell
Well, the answers are obvious.
unidentified
Okay, but anyway, I just wanted to make that point.
art bell
Well, I'm glad you made it, but I stand by what I said.
Rigged in favor of democracy, actually reforms.
They call it democracy.
I don't know.
I'm going to Russia.
unidentified
We'll see.
art bell
Tony, you know, when you go to Russia, they make you take three Visa pictures.
Not two, like any other normal country in the world, but three.
You know what I've got?
A very good old friend of mine who used to call the program many, many years ago, that many of you who have listened to this program for a long time will remember.
His name was Tom, and he called from Mount Shasta.
Tom has passed away.
He was a good friend.
Tom worked in Army intelligence, and he had a lot of good old-type buddies in intelligence.
And one day, Tom called me up and said, Art, I want you to send me a picture of yourself and your wife.
I didn't know why.
Sent them off, as requested, and passport-type pictures.
And you know what I got back?
I got KGB IDs.
Real, honest God.
Somehow, our intelligence community got these KGB IDs.
I mean, real KGB IDs, blank.
And so he took the photographs and sent them off to whoever it was, his buddy in intelligence.
And what came back to me were these real KGB IDs.
I've got them.
And I don't know what to do with them.
I don't have the slightest idea what to do with them.
And I was wondering whether it would be a good idea to take them along with me into Russia when I go.
Somehow, I don't think so.
But it sure would be fun.
Wouldn't it whip that sucker out on a Russian, you know?
Get away from me, sucker.
Look at this.
I'd be in jail forever over there.
So would my wife.
unidentified
This is Premier Networks.
That was Art Bell hosting Coast to Coast AM on this Somewhere in Time.
To Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
Tonight, featuring Coast to Coast AM from July 3rd, 1996.
art bell
You're not going to believe this one.
I've got a fax from Bugs.
Man, it's been a long time.
Dear Art, remote view, two dead big foots.
He says, feet.
I'm not sure which is right.
Code word bugs, and I recognize the handwriting.
This indeed is from Bugs.
Oh, Bugs, where have you been?
Wonder if he's about ready to resurface.
And then I've got another one here.
Art, hi.
Phil here in Reno.
I just got some good news today from Dan Mason, the program director of 780KOH here in Reno.
As of Monday, I will start training to be a board op for KOH, a dream come true.
For I've been wanting to break into radio, and Mr. Mason is going to give me the chance.
I'd like to ask you some advice, as you are also a board operator.
What can I read or study so I can be the best board op I can be?
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Phil and Reno.
Listening, of course, to KOH.
Well, that's the first good thing you do.
Listen to your radio station.
Then you have to learn certain phrases like, it was the network, sir.
That's always, you keep that one to the side.
It was the network.
Things like that.
I don't know, Phil.
I don't know what to tell you.
Pay attention.
Probably one of the, you know, we'll do a board op night again.
I did that one night.
I had a board op night.
And we'll do it again.
There are so many people behind the scenes out there that run the board, run the commercials, run the brakes, and so forth and so on.
It's just zillions of people, actually 276 of them in this case, or some fraction of that.
Some of them are run by automation, of course.
But there are people out there that do the duty, and they read news frequently and the breaks.
They take care of the commercial break.
They've really got a very big job.
So concentrate.
Keep your wits about you.
And practice.
Every chance you get, practice.
That's the only word I would have for you.
It is true, I guess, in a way.
I'm bored up.
I run my own board.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi, Art.
Hello.
How are you doing?
Okay.
Great.
I am kind of calling to test your knowledge.
Recall what happened on July 3rd, 1976.
Do you recall what happened?
art bell
July 3rd, 1976.
1976.
1976.
No, I don't.
unidentified
It was the raid of Entebbe.
Entebbe Remembered 00:06:39
unidentified
Oh, Entebbe.
That is the evening that Yoni Netanyahu died.
That's the brother of the new prime minister.
I was just teasing.
art bell
When the Israelis went screaming in and you got it.
Yeah, I remember it.
I didn't remember it.
unidentified
Unfortunately, I was nine years old, but I just finished reading a book about Yoni and the life of Yoni.
It was so cool.
art bell
I remember watching it on TV.
Everybody was so shocked and surprised and screaming and yelling and saying, why can't we do something like that?
unidentified
I always wondered about that.
The Israelis, they did the job, and, you know, they've been having to defend themselves ever since.
art bell
Not exactly like Jimmy Carter's Desert 1, huh?
unidentified
Oh, please don't even take me there.
But I just called to find out about that.
I've been thinking about it all night, and the book that I just read, I mean, really touched me.
And he was really, he really was a hero.
art bell
He really was.
unidentified
And in his own way, I just thought I'd call to see if you recall that event.
art bell
Well, I'm glad you remembered it too.
unidentified
To tell the world that it did happen 20 years ago this evening.
art bell
Well, yesterday now, actually.
unidentified
That's true.
art bell
And what happened so long ago on this day?
unidentified
Oh, perhaps it was the independence of the country.
art bell
That day, yes, indeed.
All right.
Thank you very much.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Hi.
Hello.
Well, first time caller line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Good morning, Art.
This is George in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Hi, George.
I wanted to start off by accident.
You thank God that you did not put your little sister in your homemade electric chair.
Did you ever get the thing working when you was a young boy?
I can't talk about all of that.
art bell
I did do it, actually.
I had her all wired in.
unidentified
I just got your book, by the way, and it's fantastic, by the way.
art bell
Thank you.
unidentified
Look at the cover work.
It's great.
art bell
Well, his name is there.
I'm sorry, I don't have it on the tip of my tongue, but he did it.
Gratis, he did it because he loves the show.
He's a gentleman who was in, I think, Memphis, maybe, and then moved to Las Vegas, as fortune would have it.
And we loved his artwork so much that we asked him to do it for the book, and he did.
unidentified
It's great.
One of the main reasons why I called is I love to read books, and you gave me some great recommendations.
One of the books I'm reading right now is called On the Beach that you mentioned in your book.
art bell
Oh, Neville Shoot.
unidentified
Yes, yes.
And I also want to get one of the other books that you mentioned, which is Lucifer's Hammer.
Oh, absolutely.
art bell
You've got to read that.
unidentified
I want to ask you if you know any more books.
I love the kind of end of the world.
art bell
So do I.
Yes, I've got to have Jerry Purnell back on.
I had him on the air, you know.
unidentified
Did you?
art bell
Oh, you didn't hear that?
unidentified
No, I did not.
art bell
Oh, geez.
unidentified
I missed that one.
art bell
Let's see.
unidentified
What else would be good for you?
art bell
War Day.
unidentified
War day.
art bell
Yes, you've got to read a book called...
unidentified
Oh, that's Whitney, uh, Whitney Streeper?
No.
art bell
No.
I can't remember who it is, but it's called War Day.
unidentified
War Day.
Sounds good.
Thank you, Art.
art bell
All right, take care.
Yes, I'm a big fan of end-of-the-world books, end-of-de-world books.
I've read most of them, matter of fact.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Going once.
Oh, hi.
Oh, hi.
unidentified
Sorry, I'm getting kind of late.
Hello, Art Bill.
art bell
That's true.
unidentified
Okay, I've called from Santa Monica.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
I want to thank you for having a great show.
A lot of nights I drive to Las Vegas.
I go to the county line, and I don't stay too long, and I drive back, and it's usually late at night.
Sounds great entertainment.
art bell
Sounds a little nefarious to me.
unidentified
Nefarious.
art bell
Driving to the county line.
unidentified
Now, what could he do?
Oh, I should say the state line.
Oh, gosh, am I tired?
I'm thinking of going surfing.
art bell
You go out to where you see the first flashing red light to you?
unidentified
Well, why should I drive another 100 miles back and forth to do the same thing?
art bell
All right, exposed.
unidentified
And I wanted to make a prediction or a statement on the OJ on the O.J. case.
And that would be there.
art bell
It's a little late for predictions, isn't it?
unidentified
Well, this one's a prediction for the future.
And I'm a prognosticator.
Another reason I go to the state line because I feel I'm a good prognosticator.
Okay, so I figure there's about a handful of people, I won't mention them, that really know the truth of what happened that night.
And sooner or later, one of them's going to sell out and come forward with it.
art bell
What difference will it make?
Nobody will believe them anyway.
unidentified
I think they're going to prove it.
They'll be able to, you know, they're going to have to back it up with something.
But there's going to be enough money to make somebody talk.
Or he's going to aggravate somebody.
O.J. is going to aggravate one of these people.
And this might happen five years from now.
art bell
Again, it wouldn't matter.
I mean, he's already been acquitted.
unidentified
No, no, that's right.
You know, it'll just ease up some minds.
You know, it'll just ease some minds of people that it'll kind of bring it to a little bit of closure, maybe you might say.
art bell
You know what would really be a kick?
If O.J. didn't do it and the real people who did it were caught?
unidentified
That would be incredible.
Yeah, yeah.
That would be the best story ever told.
One of the best.
Actually, I'm open for that.
I'm open for that.
art bell
I will never, never forget that trial.
I watched almost every meeting.
unidentified
So did I.
art bell
So did I. All right, my friend.
unidentified
I don't want to take up too much of your time.
Thank you very much, and I really enjoy listening to you.
That's no kidding.
art bell
All right, this thing on OJ, is this something you saw at State Line?
unidentified
No.
You mean like an odds line on it?
No, sir.
art bell
All right.
See you later.
Oh, I see.
So he really wasn't going to State Line for the reason I thought he was.
Making bets, are you, huh?
A lot of things are here legal here in Nevada that are not legal elsewhere.
We'll be right back.
Debating Drug Decriminalization 00:05:18
art bell
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Good morning.
How are you today, Art?
art bell
I'm okay.
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Colin from Ashland, Oregon.
art bell
Ashland, yes, sir.
unidentified
Yes, sir.
Well, I want to talk to you.
been a while since uh i've listened to you i know you're you you said you've i gotta turn your got the radio on Oh, now, say, you've got to turn your radio off.
art bell
It confuses you.
You should always do that right away.
unidentified
Sorry about that.
It was a recording from you earlier, and that was really confusing me.
Well, I wanted to call you and talk with you and debate about legalizing all drugs.
Why don't we do that?
art bell
Well, because then we'd end up with a lot of people in America hooked on drugs.
unidentified
Well, we already have a lot of people in America hooked on drugs.
art bell
Well, we do.
But do you want a lot more?
unidentified
How would you like double or perhaps triple that number?
What do you think, making it illegal is a way to solve the situation?
art bell
Well, I don't think making it legal is the way to, I mean, yeah, sure.
There won't be as many people in jail.
That's true.
unidentified
Well, that's one thing that we need.
art bell
Not at the expense of having a bunch of people out.
Look, look, let's say that you're a junkie, all right?
You use heroin.
And let's say that all of a sudden it becomes legal and cheap.
Do you honestly imagine that a whole bunch of people who would not have done it before would not say, okay, yes, sir, resear, let's give it a try.
Let's party down.
And they try a little heroin?
unidentified
Of course not.
I mean, would you?
art bell
That's always the question that's asked.
And because I would come back obviously and say no, I wouldn't.
That doesn't mean that a lot of people wouldn't.
unidentified
Well, the way I look at it, drugs are so available in any city, any town, anywhere you go in America.
If you want to do it, you can do it.
Regardless of whether it's legal or not.
art bell
Not easily, not without risk.
unidentified
Risk of being arrested, but then, I mean, what does that help?
What's that going to help the situation?
art bell
Well, look.
unidentified
I mean, how would you feel if the government came in and said, okay, now cigarettes, or?
art bell
Well, they may do that.
unidentified
Well, okay, and then.
art bell
If you live in Mesa, as a matter of fact, if you live in Mesa, Arizona, they've already done it.
Don't laugh.
Can't even smoke going down the sidewalk.
unidentified
Well, I mean, there's so many angles you can look at it from.
I mean, we need more prison space.
We let rapists out after they've served a fraction of their sentences.
The simple fact that it's not the right way to go about changing anything, throwing these people in jail.
I mean, they get out of jail and they just go get another fix.
art bell
Suppose I were to suggest to you that somebody high on PCP or something else is very likely to rape or plunder or rob.
unidentified
Okay, now PCP is a very, you know, PCP, crack, heroin.
I don't like them.
I don't think, you know, they should be given to the kids.
But on the other hand, I don't think you should be thrown in jail if you have a problem with it.
If you do something because, like on PCP, if you rape someone or do something, that's a separate crime.
You should be put in jail for it.
art bell
Don't you think, sir, that people on PCB are more likely to rape or rob than those who are not?
unidentified
Right, but when you look at the large portion of drug users, most of it is marijuana, other things that...
art bell
You can't sell...
Yeah, but you can't sell the case for legalization of all drugs by talking marijuana.
unidentified
Okay, but, okay, all drugs then.
If someone does something else while they're on PCP, they're going to be put in jail.
And if you let all the non-violent drug offenders who haven't done anything other than What's their own right?
You're going to be able to put that person, that violent person, in jail and leave them there.
But the argument is.
But are you letting them out after two months?
Because you've got all these dope smokers in who haven't done anything but exercise their own.
art bell
All right, see, it always comes down to that.
See, all dope smokers.
He's talking about dope smokers.
Well, look, marijuana is one thing.
There's a good argument to be made for decriminalizing it.
Fine.
That doesn't make the argument for legalizing all the other hard drugs.
It just doesn't make it.
And I wish we could separate marijuana from all of the other hard drugs so people would quit screeching that argument.
Then they would have to legitimately argue, yeah, let's legalize heroin and crack and PCP and all the other crap that's out there on the streets.
In the meantime, they are reduced to making the argument about marijuana.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Hi.
unidentified
Good morning, Art.
I just wanted to make a comment on our birthday today.
art bell
Yes, indeed.
unidentified
I often get frustrated at an election year and wish Congress would go home and stay there for six months or so.
They pass all these dumb laws.
But I was thinking this morning, had they not survived what was apparently a very hot and humid summer in Philadelphia, we wouldn't be celebrating today.
A Cat on Independence Day 00:04:35
unidentified
And I think it's a day to celebrate.
art bell
Well, it is.
And later today, you will see things going boom and into the sky in celebration of exactly that.
Not that that many people will think about it in that way.
They'll just sit there and go, ooh, and they don't think about why.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hi.
Hey, Art, let me get the radio real quick.
art bell
Turn that sucker off.
Right by your telephone.
unidentified
Well, are you there?
art bell
No, he hung up.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
All right, Art Bell.
Yes, sir.
Guess what?
What?
A cat has come to us on Independence Day.
Really?
Yes, the cutest little thing.
art bell
How did this cat come to you?
unidentified
I was sitting in the living room dubbing a tape that I want to send to you with some tunes on it.
art bell
Yeah.
unidentified
And I had a barrier set up by the back door to keep any skunks that may be wandering by.
art bell
A skunk barrier, yes.
I put up several of those myself.
unidentified
But to keep the rabbits out, of course.
And I looked up, and there was this little kitty hanging over the barrier.
art bell
Hanging over the barrier?
unidentified
Yeah, its front paws, hanging over the top, looking in.
art bell
Oh, that's too cute.
unidentified
Oh, yes.
So it caused a facial expression in me, I'm sure, which encouraged it to go ahead and jump on over.
And it came over and it plopped itself down on the floor there in front of me.
art bell
Really?
unidentified
And I said, I know what you're doing.
And it kicked its feet up in the legs and kind of, you know, did that little twisty thing.
And I said, I don't know.
You know, we can't afford a kitty cat.
art bell
Yes, you can.
unidentified
And then it begged.
It begged.
It was just begging.
art bell
It begged?
unidentified
Yes, it begged.
So I said, okay, I'll talk to mommy in the morning and we'll see.
So it jumped up and started to explore the house.
Went into the back room.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
A couple of minutes later, I went in there and looked at, you know, see what it was up to.
It had gotten up on my daughter's, my three-year-old daughter's bad G. Marie, and it was stretched out longer than a baseball bat.
Aw.
Right next to her.
So, again, the heartstrings are being tugged.
G. Marie eventually woke up and she's all look daddy, look, daddy.
And it's just the gentlest thing, playing paws with her and not extending its claws at all.
But we can't afford a kitty cat.
art bell
I already have three, so don't talk to me.
unidentified
No, no, no, no.
How about listeners?
A listener that sends a quarter will receive a picture of her and Jean Marie.
I know what I'm getting myself into.
art bell
No, that's a racket.
That's a racket.
No.
unidentified
No, it's not.
I swear, I'll send you a picture.
art bell
I'm a quarter.
Send a quarter.
What are you talking about?
unidentified
Because we can't afford a kitty cat.
We've got two kids.
art bell
Well, maybe somebody out there would be willing to adopt it.
unidentified
Okay, the alternative is going to be the Humane Society.
Oh, no.
art bell
The gas chamber.
unidentified
No.
art bell
The little kitty electric chair.
unidentified
No.
No.
art bell
That's a racket.
Anybody who sends a quarter will be given.
That's terrible, sir.
You lay out this story, and then you try to solicit a quarter for a photograph of this little waif of a cat and your daughter.
It's disgusting.
It's absolutely disgusting.
You're going to do that on national radio?
Now I've heard it all.
First time call online, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hey, Art.
Hello.
Few Orleans.
How are you doing?
art bell
All right.
Would you send a quarter to get a photograph of that cat?
unidentified
That's outrageous.
art bell
Oh, man.
Nerve of some people.
unidentified
Listen, to quickly change the subject, I wanted to ask you about the Urancha books.
Oh, yes.
Do you not cover that subject matter because it's too religious?
Or have you had anybody on about the subject?
art bell
Well, as a 99th Degree Mason, I've been told not to talk about Urania.
unidentified
No, okay.
art bell
No, I don't know.
We've talked about it.
Website and Newsletter Coming 00:01:27
unidentified
Have you ever had anybody on?
art bell
Well, yes.
A couple of Dreamland guests have discussed it, yes.
unidentified
And is there any is it like legit?
Or is it like a college thesis?
art bell
I pray to the book every day myself.
I don't know.
It's, you know, it's one of those things.
Do you believe?
Do you not believe?
That sort of thing.
unidentified
Well, I've checked it out on the internet, and that's about the extent of what I've seen, and it's pretty detailed, and all these levels.
Let me say that I've checked out your website from beginning to end, everywhere.
art bell
Now, we have got a cool website.
If you guys over the weekend want something to do, go check out our website.
It's www.artbell.com, right?
unidentified
And that chupacabra is something else.
art bell
Oh, it really is.
And that chupacabra, by the way, is going to be in our newsletter, this coming newsletter.
So a lot of people who have not seen it are going to see its absolute ugliness.
Listen, you're down in New Orleans?
unidentified
Yes, sir.
art bell
Listening to Who Dat?
unidentified
That's correct.
art bell
RBT.
All right.
Well, I'm going to modify the usual honors this morning.
And instead of saying goodnight, America, I thought it might be appropriate for you to say something like, hey, from New Orleans, happy birthday, America.
How about that?
unidentified
From New Orleans, the home of the best food in the world.
Happy birthday, America.
art bell
And from the high desert, this is Art Bell.
