So weird to see Khrushchev's revelations described as a lie but then

Thanks. It’s encouraging to see this dissent in the party, but when Sanders
endorses Clinton, as he has promised, it’s more likely most of his supporters
will fall away and a few will join the PDA rather than continue to organize as
you suggest after the election. The steam will go out of the
Well, I don't support the third party project in the United States; I don't
think it is at all likely to succeed in helping to accomplish anything
tangible and useful in any future that we can see; indeed, I hope that the
third party project in the U.S. will continue to be at least as irrelevant

A key point is that the US is fundamentally unlike the UK and unlike Europe
with respect to the matter - the word "party" has a completely different
meaning. In the European context, capturing party institutions through
internal party elections can actually mean something fairly decisive. In

If Clinton is so awful - and I agree that she is - why not help Sanders
defeat her, instead of assuming that he will lose to her? According to
recent polls, Sanders is leading her in Iowa and New Hampshire, with more
than 50% in New Hampshire.
Isn't it odd that 50% of Democrats in New Hampshire

You may be misunderstanding me.
I’m skeptical you can ever have a viable third party movement in the US or
elsewhere without an exodus of deeply disaffected supporters from the major
left-centre party, perhaps preceded by an unsuccessful internal struggle to
change its leadership and
The same time that you used to trash Sanders for your expectation that he
will endorse Hillary if he loses you could have used to praise Sanders for
being the main obstacle right now to her coronation. If your words matter

By the way, I'm just curious, what is
It's worth noting, though, that Sanders is mobilizing a lot of people to do
more than be mere "supporters." There is an attempt to turn volunteers into
real organizers - people who organize events on their own; people who talk
to people they don't know on their own and try to have "organizing
I’ve often argued that any serious mass protest against declining living
standards would express itself both inside and outside the established
left-centre parties - with the initial impulse registering more strongly on the
inside than on the outside.
Accordingly, I’ve supported equally those
