The sentence you quote doesn't imply that the Million Man March was politically significant for us.

Why reduce "the first-ever national mobilization of rank-and-file labor activists led by the Black left leadership" to a matter of "the skin color" of the march organizers alone and falsely attribute the reduction to me, when my posting to which you reply explicitly rejects it? Anyhow, judging by all your other posts, there doesn't appear to be any activity (including campaigning for the Democratic Party candidate that you intend to vote for) that isn't "pointless" in your opinion. I congratulate you for coming up with a great excuse to yourself for doing nothing politically and feeling good about it.

>Who is the 'left' that he [Ralph Nader] represents?
Those who don't want to vote for Bush or Kerry will be represented by Nader (or any of the other candidates on the left, where they are on the ballots), if they vote. The rest will be represented by Kerry or Bush.
