Well, by all means have at it.....

I'll just continue to forward choice items off this list and others to
coworkers and friends across the country.  These are mostly on issues
and critical of Obama when they touch on him.  But that's all part of
having what impact we know to have....

I look to the masses to draw their own conclusions and act based on
their experience.  Our role is to explain what they're learning from
experience.

On the other hand, you can take the magical approach.  If you advice
on reaching the masses from those who wouldn't back Nader or McKinney
because those candidates wouldn't use the  "s-word"--or from those who
wouldn't even do that unless is was the right kind of "s-word" used by
the right kind of organization--then you believe there is merit in
pretending that what we say changes the masses without their having to
go through the experience themselves.  That is magic.

But, as I say, have at it....
