    He’s got legal baggage and is too moderate. Walz doesn’t have baggage and is progressive.

    Walz is also the rare kind of progressive that gets others to join him being progressive. he might not be the most progressive, but he’s effective.

            No, I don’t think the particular thought you had was reasonable. Which is why I made the comment I did.

                Well, I have never heard about the beatles singers version of communism. And looking through his wiki it doesn’t mention any political writings of that nature.

                Can’t be against a philosophy that doesn’t exist. But if it did, it would get corrupted very shortly after being implemented.
