23. I remember 1968 Demo Convention
When the young were disenfranchised by the Demos and they went to Chicago to protest. And Daily turned the storm troopers on them and caused a riot.
It was only because of the changes that the party made because of the shameless power grab of 68 that Mcgovern was able to get the nomination in 72.
And Dean is no Mcgovern despite the right wing talking points.
