Gives us a timeline of 0bama's "investigation". Sometime after 1975, 0bama began to strive towards the radicals.
LOL, I don’t remember hearing that line. Thanks for the smile. :-)

Where he also absorbed the “Dionysian, up-for-grabs” spirit of the ‘60s...
I have trouble believing that Obama actually wrote this.
Like that’s the kind of attitude we want in a President.
I have similar suspicions.
Thank you for this thread, shows how sad they are/were.
And how they raised their children to be just like them.
One cranked up dude pulled a pistol on an Angel and then pointed it at the stage.
He got his “suicide by biker” wish fulfilled.
3 other people died in accidents at the concert.
Two were victims of hit-and-run and one drowned in an irrigation canal.
The Angel [Alan Passaro] was completely exonerated and acquitted by a jury who reviewed the video and found it to be self defense.
The only reason “Meredith Hunter” sticks in the collective consciousness is because he was black, and surprise, some tried to turn it into a “racial incident”.
It was not.
Meth-induced stupidity comes in all colors.
Maybe Barry hallucinated ‘his version’ of the event.
“Maybe Barry hallucinated ‘his version’ of the event.”
And, that is really my comment. His romanticism of these different events have shaped a distorted view of any of those realities.
That is really the problem I have with him: he is fully engaged in the abstract and indulges “real” policies that try to use false notions of history.
Whether it is not being smart enough to know the actual history of an event or bastardizing known principles of economics (or geo political strategies)...he still suffers from a willing ignorance or a desired romanticism.
Here’s my watermark memory of the 60s.
For reasons known only to my dad, [political obliviousness, no doubt] he took us to Canada in 1969 for vacation.
We camped in a park FULL of hippies and my dad had to escort us womenfolk back and forth to the bathrooms because naked, screaming, filthy hippies were dancing and shrieking around bonfires all night.
They harassed anyone non-hippy every chance they got.
Everything I needed to know about them I learned that night.
[truly, it looked like a scene from Dante’s Inferno]
