real change

My alma mater is Wichita State University.  In 1968, after participating in the McCarthy children's crusade, I returned to college and talked to our on campus black communist, an instructor of something.  I asked who he was voting for.  "Wallace, of course," he said.  I was stunned.  "But he will bring the revolution faster than the other two," he told me.  We are in a much more precarious position, both politically and economically.  I can only hope he was right.

If I've understood you correctly, sir... I don't think he was right at all. Never give your opponent what he asks for. Never give the devil his day, because he'll think he earned it. And that's where America is now.
Interesting anecdote though.
