16. Good point-- yet didn't the outrage demand expression at the time?
Edited on Sat Aug-06-05 01:10 PM by omega minimo
Americans follow their leaders. Leaders capitulated. Americans capitulated. To the extent that Americans are also responsible for what has happened to our nation and planet. To the extent that some repliers here think the perception issue only affects an irrelevant "minority." It's bigger than that and if Dems aren't willing to discuss it, the Far Reich will continue to rule.

"Gore has the stronger case, as many have mentioned, and a campaign could even be based on the shocking criminality of the capitalist/Republican theft of the Presidency...Gore could talk about "what might have been," with a Gore Presidency as elected, how the world might have united after Sept. 11th, as it was for a while before Bush and Republicans killed it...It could actually end up being a strength for Gore--just going over the details of how they fought and were sabotaged by a Republican-packed Supreme Court alone, is a chilling lesson told correctly."

Your idea could work. It would have to be done from the heart. If the handlers get a hold of Gore trying that, it will be turned into a sappy performance art piece and he will be SHREDDED by the RW.
