Ok. The defining line between left and right is xenophobia/racism, internationalism/nationalism. So then, the AFL was a right-wing organization late into the 20th Century (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_policies_of_American_labor_unions)? And the Libertarian Party, which favors unrestricted immigration, is left-wing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian_perspectives_on_immigration)? And does that mean that a Marxist would have more ideological affinity with the Libertarian Party than the AFL?
