Was it in a bullying tone the young voter in Bob Kerr's
column ( Nov. 17 ) was told by a Gore supporter : " A vote for
Nader is a vote for Bush " ?
Smartly she commented: " A vote for Nader is a vote for
Nader ! "
Now with the mess in Florida both the ruling parties
must be reminded of the ABCs of Democracy.
Also the INDEPENDENT LEFT in our United States is
a joke. The CPUSA denounced Nader - far more to the left than
Al Gore - as a spoiler, yes , a despicable spoiler who savored
his sordid role !
Let me remind the Party of its not so ancient
history. Before Uncle Joe Stalin got around to assassinating
Leon Trotsky in Mexico , there were the famous Moscow Trials.
The revolutionary Trotsky was denounced as a vile traitor
plotting with Hitler to overthrow the Workers Paradise, the
Soviet Union.
The Stalinist bureaucracy - becoming quite comfortable
and corrupt in power - could not stomach Trotsky's wild idea
of " permanent revolution " .
Alas it was Uncle Joe who made a pack with the German
madman dictator, Adolph Hitler.
What would Eugene Debs have said about the pernicious
habit of voting for the lesser evil, voting for the Democrat,
no matter how remote he was from even LIBERAL ideals ?
Is Ralph Nader the new Trotsky - the perennial
enemy of ALL establishments ?
God bless - and protect- him.
