Democrats Have Been On The Defensive Since Ronald Reagan - Nothing Has Changed

53. I totally understand Bill Clinton's culpability in our shift to the right.

The point is, it started even before Reagan, with the Powell Manifesto (corporate and 1% takeover of the entire national dialog) . Then Reagan's radical shift is what set the political stage -- in support of the Powell Manifesto -- for Bill Clinton to represent the DLC bandwagon. The DLC was/is the democrats shift to the right. Clinton's benefactors -- a couple of whom I know personally -- were the republicans who decided to infiltrate the dem party with their money and their politicians to support, as per the Powell Manifesto, as per the Reagan/Bush political shift to the extreme right.

The Powell Manifesto was the PNAC agreement of the 1970's. Same school, same philosophy. Take over government with their money at every level, one law at a time, one race at a time, one news station at a time, one tv station at a time, one newspaper, one college, one school board.
