"Elites" are those who pull the strings of the puppets in Washington, DC and in governments around the world.
Well, you would be wrong!
Elitism is the belief or attitude that some individuals, who form an elite — a select group of people with intellect, wealth, specialized training or experience, or other distinctive attributes — are those whose views on a matter are to be taken the most seriously or carry the most weight or those who view their own views as so; whose views and/or actions are most likely to be constructive to society as a whole; or whose extraordinary skills, abilities or wisdom render them especially fit to govern.[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elitism
