How and why empty suit monsters like krudd and gillard are marketed as leaders.
Celebrities as symbols « Jon Rappoport's Blog
Now, we’re talking about the trick involving symbols. They’re basically empty. You fill in the emptiness.
All this becomes more interesting when you realize there are PR people and propagandists working around the clock to make you impart particular meaning to symbols. They’re not satisfied to have you supply your own meaning. No.
For example, the last thing they want is you supplying your own references to photos of Hillary Clinton. They want you to think: distinguished leader, much experience, first woman president, above party politics, brilliant mind, great sympathy for the plight of the less fortunate, etc.
They want to make the symbol of Hillary as specific as possible.
This is really why the speeches of politicians are so empty. Their handlers don’t want actual information to get in the way of how the symbol is being crafted. PR people, if they could, would have a presidential candidate come up to a microphone, stand there, smile, and say nothing.
