[lbo-talk] Neither Soros's Dems nor Bush's GOP

[Bob Feldman]

Since the 21st-century anti-war/anti-corporate New Left in the United States
is a populist left, it's likely that it will continue to oppose transforming
the United States political system into even more of a Plutocracy.

So if Ralph ends up challenging both Soros's Dems and Bush's GOP on an
anti-corporate/anti-plutocratic basis then even the Old Left's
"lesser-evilists" may not be able to prevent Ralph from obtaining over 33%
of the U.S. popular vote in 2004--especially if Soros's Dems and Bush's GOP
aren't allowed to exclude independent non-plutocrat-subsidized presidential
candidates from the televised presidential debates in 2004.  Once Ralph is
in the White House, presumably he would prevent the plutocrats, the
corporations, and the corporate media from ever again rigging the U.S.
electoral system; and he would, presumably, move towards quickly
establishing an electoral system of proportional representation and quickly
abolishing the U.S. electoral college.

It's interesting that Soros is also apparently working with Real Network
Inc. CEO Rob Glaser on Soros's effort to take over the Democratic Party
presidential campaign, since Rob Glaser's foundation has apparently given
two grants, totalling $100,000, to help subsidize Amy Goodman's Democracy
Now! show in recent years
