The shortcomings and outright perils of the treaty have already been dissected by National Center president David Ridenour in a very thorough National Policy Analysis.  Currently, the possibility that the Obama Administration and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid may move to ram through the ratification of the treaty this spring is of particular concern to the supporters of the National Center’s Americans Against U.N. Control program.

Despite the rain and cold, the National Center continued its presence at Freedom Plaza, as it will through the middle of March.
