Political commentary on current events and Progressive policy. This blogger insists on civil debate and pragmatic policy, not fiction and new realities.
This snippet from the Rachel Maddow Show on Tuesday night is a dramatic demonstration of the political divide in our country. By simply pointing out how the different candidates handle the free speech activities pointed at them, the point is driven home very clearly. Who is for the status quo, preserving the biased economic system supporting the financial and politcal elite, and who is for the allowing the American dream to be preserved for everyone. Watch this and observe the reactions. As always, Rachel's analysis is insightful.
Some of the candidates fought with the demonstrators, one candidate respected them. Some of them didn't really know how to handle the situation, one candidate called them by name and indicated that THEY were the reason he entered public service. Can any of the other candidates in the current lineup say the same thing?
