More than you think.
The Democratic Party has adopted our platform
Norman Matton Thomas (November 20, 1884 – December 19, 1968) was a leading American socialist, pacifist, and six-time presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America. He was ordained as a Presbyterian minister in 1911. As a candidate for President of the U.S., Norman Thomas said, in a 1944 epoch speech: “The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of “liberalism”, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” He went on to say: “I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democratic Party has adopted our platform..”(If this was known back in 1944 just how dumb down have the American people become to not know it today? Are we so lethargic and blind or, are we just that lazy? Or, are we really just that stupid? Personally, I think we’re just that lazy!!!)
