RE: Yale University Society
Hi,
I was involved in the exposure of S & B in the 1980s (mainly), and a friend of the most important person to 'out' them - the late Dr. Anthony Sutton whose series of books on them did the trick and forced Bush Snr. to grudgingly admit membership after a long battling correspondence with us.
S & B "on campus" are not a powerful secret society - that's just where and how they are recruited. At that stage they're just Boston uni kids. S & B after Yale is certainly powerful, yes. The most powerful in the world? That's hard to call as there are a number of other secretive societies, primarily to do with finance and banking.
Bear with me ;)- I'm just looking at the wording here to suggest changes. 'Secret'? Well, basically S & B still is in what it does etc., but 20 years ago they were truly secret in the sense that they were unknown to almost anybody. Now their full membership list is out there in print! :D(No, they're not happy about that...)
Finally, not an 'ancient' mystery (where you've posted it)I guess, since they began in 1832. But they've played a huge part in 19th, 20th, and now 21st century history, yes. Which is a long story.
Edit to add: Hang on! Clinton wasn't Skull and Bones at all. Was he even Yale?? S & B were probably very frustrated during his times in office.
S & B have usually been the prime advosors to some Presidents, rarely the President himself as per the Bush family. Incidentally, John Kerry, the Democrat'challenger' to Bush last time is also Skull and Bones. Both Kerry and Bush refused outrightto the media to discuss their membership, but the fact is whichever won, it would have been S & B. Just amazing that the American media didn't pick up more on that. (But then who owns much ofthe U.S. media?)

RE: Yale University Society
OK, thanks. He wasn't (and isn't) initiated into Skull and Bones, but then that isn't the end of the matter. S & B are the most powerful secret society for Yale graduates, but there are 2-3 secondary ones such as Scroll and Key. I didn't know Clinton was at Yale at all - since he was I'd bet he was in one of those. The info will be out there on the net probably, but what he joined will be called a 'college society' which is what Bonesmen try to make out S & B is.
So, yes, hard to get away from these guys. However could the USA get another Abe Lincoln?
Things are less controlled in the UK. John Major, Prime Minister in the 1990s, only had a couple of GCSEs, which are a minor school qualification earned at 16! Few of our recent PMs have already been in any shady society.
