Forgot that section of DREAMS FROM MY FATHER --- so unbelievably sad that a guy with such knowledge would be so thoroughly seduced -- but if he had REALLY tried to effect change he might have been successfully assassinated .... It does suggest that relying on a "leader" is never going to work. FDR was just a rich guy who "wanted to be President" but in the context of the Depression he was FORCED to do some "right" things --- creating a structural reform to US capitalism that (in compromise with the Jim Crow Southerners) created a social safety net and opened the door to unionization .... Masses of people in motion is the only thing that works --- right now, unfortunately, many masses are showing up at Trump rallies ready to start marching on the rest of us .... (except maybe their numbers APPEAR greater than they are ... we can only hope!) _________________________________________________________ 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
