The main outfit mobilizing for the inauguration protest is International ANSWER <http://www.internationalanswer.org/>. While I have never taken the sort of sectarian attitude against ANSWER and the Workers World Party that some leftists have, I can't exactly generate the same enthusiasm for yet another march called by ANSWER as what is initiated and organized by ILWU Local 10. I think that such Black labor left organizers as Clarence Thomas, Trent Willis, Leo Robinson, etc. leading a movement against the occupations would make the movement much more politically promising than white professional revolutionaries like the Becker brothers leading it could.

I'm not 100 percent sure -- I'm merely 99.99% sure. And I'd rather prepare post-election mobilization based on what's very much likely than what is only a theoretical possibility.

You mean electing the Republican presidential candidate in 2008? -- Yoshie
