I had the opportunity to stop in and visit with Gerald Celente. With very short notice, he was willing to meet me. Gerald was very gracious to interrupt his work and take in a total stranger who happened along. I found him to be just like his videos, but in person he seems more introspective, sensitive, and passionate about other things than is obvious from his videos.

We must have talked for an hour. He also put up with standing for a photo.

He gave me a couple issues of his The Trends Journal, which I had to admit I had never read before. They seem to be 30-40 pages of interesting, sometimes controversial commentary. I think it would be easy to agree with 90% of his positions. One thing he mentioned that raised flags was his push for a DD- Direct Democracy movement. While our system is thoroughly corrupt, I cannot see throwing out the constitution in favor of a true democracy made up of the idiocracy kind of people that are breeding today.

Gerald was clear about his passion for justice, quality of life and quality of products. With an old school flare for art, family history, and hard work, it is easy to like the guy.
