LaRouche Will Lead Dems To November Landslide Win
by Jeffrey Steinberg and Michele Steinberg

You'd never know what happened at the Democratic Party National Convention held in Boston, July 26-July 30, from the national media, the Internet, or even by being there as a delegate. Despite every effort of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and its chairman, Terry McAuliffe, to ban any attacks on the fascist policies of the Dick Cheney-George W. Bush Administration, the distribution of more than 50,000 copies of Lyndon LaRouche's "Real Democratic Platform for November, 2004," by a unique political force, the LaRouche Youth Movement (LYM), catalyzed a dramatic change in Boston.

Party delegates, Young Democrat leaders, Democratic elected officials, and activists who attended three public events addressed by 2004 Presidential primary candidate LaRouche during the week, began to work with the LYM to plan the strategy for an immediate August organizing offensive to drive the Cheney-Bush dictatorship out of the White House.

1. LaRouche Need To Lead His Followers to the Looney Bin
I know we're not supposed to bash fellow Democrats, but Lyndon LaRouche and his followers are just plain scary!!!

2. Just when did he become a Democrat?
Another Right-Wing ploy?

9. LaRouche and his minions...
are nuts and very scary.

In some local primary elections they run along side the dems, hoping that many uninformed democratic voters will unwillingly pull the lever next to their name.

Larouche. Isn't that the guy who thinks the Grateful Dead was a British intelligence operation cooked up by Henry Kissinger and the Club of Rome?

5. So where's the goddamn platform?
All I see is a link to the article which leads to another link to the same exact article. No links to Lyndon's platform. Hell, I'd like to read it, out of curiosity. Compare it to the DLC's and see which is the furthest from what an actual Democratic platform should be.

I don't care how badly you want to beat Bush, having anything to do with Lyndon LaRouche is not an option.

7. So how many members do they have? Our side needs all the help it can get
I don't think that Kerry is anywhere as prepared for Bush as he needs to be.

13. I'm not really sure
if this is an endorsement the Kerry campaign wants.

That said, if his cult of nutcase followers vote for Kerry all the better.
