"Well, if we were talking about money, it would be one thing. When we're talking about the popular elective franchise, it's another. You equate the struggle for universal suffrage with a tussle over mafia loot?"
no way...it's just that I can't equate the battle between democrats and republicans as the struggle for universal suffrage...in fact, they both represent opposition to that struggle, and act accordingly in their respective campaigns...for only one example,they exclude potential voters - all the time - by striving to include only those they want...
