It is a masterful piece of work!
Next you'll have to follow through with a similar analysis of the Democratic Bloc that as you accurately detail now makes up our body politic.
Hap-py Days are here again.....The skies are clear and blue again.....Hap-py days are here again!
That is if Democrats aren't complex. True they don't have the issues of Vietnam and their divisive potential. But it has been so long since there has been any national agenda that addresses how this nation fundamentally defines itself. Too long maybe. Therefore the question arises as to whether or not everyone in the Democratic Party has the same intentions.
The pressing issues of our time are without parallel. It just may be the case that the Democratic Party will be forced to finish the war in Iraq. While at the same attempting to establish once and for all the highest ideals of this nation on a practical level. The Cold War was just that. While what Johnson attempted came during a time of plenty. Add to that the fact of an opposition at home that has literally institutionalized
attacks against anything not benefiting only a tiny few and you can easily see the difficulties ahead.
Maybe Mr. B you'll take your considerable talents and describe whether or not the Party has the wherewithal for its challenges.
I appreciate your time thus far for sure.....and as always, Viva la Salon!
