Being Bill Clinton's age, I have heard it all before. In
the 60s it was New-Left dogma : there is NO difference between
the CAPITALIST parties. Therefore vote for Gus Hall ( CPUSA) or
Peter Camejo ( SWP - remember him ? ) .
My common sense told me way back then: there is INDEED a
a difference between an FDR and a " silent Cal ".
There is indeed a difference between a New Deal and a dirty
deal.
But now I hear THIS nonsense from the very same LEFTISTS:
" Ralph Nader is playing a dangerous game. He might help to
elect George W !" Yes, yes , and perhaps he is even an agent
of the Republican National Committee.
Clearly a vote for Nader is OBJECTIVELY a vote
for FASCISM !
Really ? Anybody for true DEMOCRACY here ? Can't a
principled man like Ralph Nader run for president, stand up
for what he believes, without being put on guilt trip ?
To be sure, " compassionate conservative " George
W Bush is NOT the anti -Christ. And Al Gore is NOT FDR.
A strong showing for Nader in the November election
will strengthen the " progressive " forces in the nation.
Democrats vs. Republicans must not be the only
game that matters.
Oddly enough old Gus Hall - American Communist - clearly
supports Al Gore -Democrat.
Gus knows all about fascists !
