I don’t trust Wikipedia although I use it at times. hillary is not the case of “protection” I looked up the ADA, “Americans for Democratic Action” a few years ago and it stated the group was formed to fight communist. It was formed by democrats in the late 40s to give cover and comfort to communist and bring them into the democrat party to keep them from running a presidential candidate either as socialist or openly communist in the 1952 elections. democrats had already decided adlai stevenson would be their candidate and they wanted the votes of communist and socialist and did not want them splitting the vote. that the ADA was formed to fight communism was and or is a blatent lie. If Eisenhower had not been the Republican candidate communist would have likely got stevenson elected. I know Wikipedia changes and don’t know what it says about the ADA today.
hillary is not the case of “protection””
Should read.... “hillary is not the only case of “protection”
I went back to Wikipedia and looked up the ADA again. It now says they promote “progressive “ policies. In their history it still says they were anti-communist, The only thing they were against the communist doing was splitting the ticket. It mentions their efforts in the 46 congressional races. It has been changed since I last saw it but still denies their accommodating the communist/socialist to keep them off the ballot.
