[lbo-talk] March 20, 2004, Columbus, OH: A Day That Will Live In Infamy

[Joseph Wanzala]

also, for white people to be using the race card against Nader is doubly 
ironic and silly given that he is a non-white person himself (in the UK he 
would be called black as are all non-white people) and also because anybody 
who has any sense of how radical blacks think about mainstream politics 
would know that the pro-con Nader debate is so irrelevant. Most serious 
radical black people are deeply cynical about both parties and don't see 
Bush as significantly different that Clinton or anyone else.
