Abstract
This chapter explores the concept of who runs or controls the United States of America. In a sense, running a country is perceived as the process of interfering in other people's lives. The control assessment is complemented by who people talk about with control questions about how familiar people are with that person or group. A mind genomics approach is presented in this chapter to evaluate the relevant issue of who runs this country. The results show who looms important and if that important person is someone familiar or someone strange.
