[Marxism] Obama win does not end racism, activists say

Of course I'm serious.  And of course that's not what I said.  Dialectics do 
not exist between rhetoric and aspiration without a mediation, a form of 
organization.  That's the great work Marx did, locating the dialectic, the 
mediation,  the "movement" out of "spirit" and into social labor.

So where and how do these "vessels,"  Obama rhetoric and "mass"aspirations, 
hope and change, communicate?

Look at this, noontime, and I've already used my quota.  "Hope"  somebody 
jumps in here, and takes over.  I have to "change."
