If Cornel West is a charlatan, and I don't believe he is, this country could use more such charlatans. For that matter, the U.S. needs more left charlatans to provide an antidote to the plethora of such creatures on the right. --------------------------------------------
Oh, I don't think anyone is saying he's a charlatan. But there's just something about being the official black radical of the ivy league that takes a toll. Didn't happen to Chomsky, but Chomsky was a diff generation.
