Go to 44: The Obama Presidency
- Add a comment
- Go to Another angry and pointless debate between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama
I have read and listened repeatedly to Barack Obama's comments about Ronald Reagan. It is very hard not to interpret them as sympathetic to conservative ideology (note the talk of government growing large and unaccountable, as though lack of accountability were because of the welfare state and not corporate influence on government). Not that Barack Obama is reactionary. But his remarks ceded too much ground to those who are.

what happened is the Democrats dropped the banner of activism
