I liked his campaign 4 years ago better. Then, he said that.....this
is a crock, so don't spend your time or money here. That was pretty
honest.
What we need is a good functioning Left, non-electoral political party.
What is Nader doing right now?...more than being a vehicle to push the
Democrats back into liberalism, away from neo-liberal centrism?
What happens after November? Then we have another tiny capitalist
party (The Greens) in place to run in elections?
It would be nice for a Left political party to think of making its
activity something more than just electorialism. Nader doesn't seem
to be a bridge to a union based labor party at all. The labor hacks
still love the Dems. And Nader is not committed to building The
Greens, neither.
This seems about as exciting as John Anderson in the long run. I
think that Clinton is set to invite the liberals back soon. He's
going to throw a few crumbs their way, and toss an old bone.... uh, so
to speak.
