====================================================================== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. ======================================================================
I was first attracted to the Socialist Workers Party by its campaign of Fred Halstead for President and Paul Boutelle for Vice President in 1968. I was involved with the Democratic party at the time—working for Eugene McCarthy's campaign—but I liked Halstead and Boutelle's straightforward message, as a contrast to some of the mealymouthed, compromising stuff from my own candidate. Stay tuned: I'm planning on telling the whole story of my experience with the Democratic party later this month or early next.
