The driving force of 2016 presidential election : the angry American working class

   Oddly enough , from torture to starting World III, from attacking " socialized medicine " to declaring war on state workers and unions in general , nothing Donald Trump has said is dissonant with the GOP party line for years now. He just has a more brazen style .

       The news media is to some degree responsible for this mass anger-in-action- by over-vilifying Donald Trump-I suspect- in order to make hawkish Hillary , just as pro-capitalist Hillary as Trump , look more inevitably presidential.

         I think Bernie Sanders is the Voice of Reason in the presidential campaign of 2016. He just won my state of Rhode Island by a landslide in the Democratic Primary. Just for the record : Donald Trump won by a knockout in our Republican Primary.

        It will all be decided in November by the Anti-Establishment Voter- the " angry American working class ".

 

Does it take a " democratic socialist " to mourn the death of traditional liberalism ?

 

    Political illiteracy in this capitalist , brainwashed country is as rampant as science illiteracy. There is nothing in the past of President Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton which suggests an ideological attraction to militant socialism.

 

    The " communism " associated with collapsed Soviet Union has been anathema on the democratic Left for decades now.

       My case against the neo-Democrats is that they have betrayed traditional liberalism. Indeed the gospel of " political correctness " is downright illiberal.

         Still Hillary is as over-vilified on the right as Donald Trump is on the left.

All Two Party System presidential candidates ignoring World War III

  If Mr. Gingerella wants to know how dedicated " professional " socialists view the decline of the American middle class, he should browse the World Socialist Web Site. Excellent articles and editorials every week.

    Lately the Socialist Equality Party is pointing out how ALL  " two party system " presidential candidates are ignoring U.S. preparation for more wars -all over the world ! These socialists are a little too sectarian for me. But they are often quite right.

       Both Hillary and Trump have bragged about having " the right stuff " to start World War III. Yes, it is a woman's turn !

Bernie is a " hard core communist " ? Radical Ron knows about " hard core communism "

   I voted for " democratic socialist " Bernie Sanders in the Tuesday Democratic Primary. I know something about " hard core communism ".

 

   I was a presidential elector for the American Communist Party and the Trotskyist Socialist Workers Party here in Rhode Island during the Nixon era.

       Bernie is more of a New Deal Democrat than a moderate socialist. We would like to push him more to the left. But we still love him.
