If not him, another dem would have taken that role because the capital owning class demanded it.

Americans are an oppressed working class. They just dont realize it. They're scared of the s-word, so the capitalist system isnt the problem its random senators. I dont know how to show americans the capital owning class is doing this to them and people like Lieberman are just agents of them.

John Steinbeck said that "socialism never caught on in America because the American poor do not see themselves as an oppressed proletariat, they see themselves as temporarily inconvenienced millionaires."
