with the old leadership. If he pulls off a great contract, it’ll be great for the Dem Party. I think it is headed in that direction. Lots of factions in the union, just need a leader with a big success to unite all of them. The bigots are a minority in the union. They just get a lot of attention. The elected UAW leadership is pretty diverse and elected by the members.
