Of course. I fully agree. But focusing just on the AFL-CIO's many shortcomings overlooks the rest of the story here - massive numbers of young people protesting capitalism in the streets. Sure their critique may be inchoate and untheorized, but isn't this something those of us approaching geezerhood have been waiting for? The ruling class divided and confused, Clinton & the U.S. government humiliated on a world stage, and a new movement on the rise?
