Meh. It was bound to happen and certainly not the worse thing he's ever said or done). Maybe he's hoping that it will help him get some more endorsements. I could care less about whether he's now officially a Democrat or not (wasn't he always really a Democrat anyway?). Granted it's a low bar, but I still think he's the best left candidate the US has seen in decades. I realize what I'm saying is anathema to sectarians and maximalists, but my view is that we need someone talking about all the issues he's talking about on a national level. Like I mentioned in an earlier post, his candidacy has forced major media outlets to hold non-caricature based discussions of socialism (and gotten a lot of young people talking and thinking about socialism v. capitalism). It doesn't matter if it's only the DSA-brand of socialism...it's a sea change nonetheless. I'll support him while he's running (and talk to other supporters about socialism while I'm doing it). If he loses, oh well. > On Nov 10, 2015, at 5:57 PM, Louis Proyect via Marxism > <[email protected]> wrote: > > ******************** POSTING RULES & NOTES ******************** > #1 YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. > #2 This mail-list, like most, is publicly & permanently archived. > #3 Subscribe and post under an alias if #2 is a concern. > ***************************************************************** > > > > http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2015/11/08/bernie-sanders-i-am-a-democrat-now/ > _________________________________________________________ > Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm > Set your options at: > http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/shalva.eliava%40outlook.com _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
