PART OF THE WAY WITH JB

SDS was known in 1964 for rationalizing their call to vote for LBJ using
the slogan "Part of the Way with LBJ", a play on the Lyndon Baines Johnson
campaign slogan "All the Way with LBJ."  Today's 'old new left' SDS
letter-signers have come together to say "Part of the Way with JB", Joe
Biden.

I respected the letter signers (those i knew of) in the 1960s but i
wouldn't ask them for political advice today.  Some of them have been
consistently giving bad political advice since the sixties, i.e. Todd
Gitlin and Carl Davidson.

SDS was known in 1964 for countering LBJ's campaign slogan "All the Way
with LBJ" with "Part of the Way with LBJ."   I wouldn't ask for political
advice from any of these letter signers; some are truly execrable, i.e.
Todd Gitlin and Carl Davidson.
