Never happen, the rank and file are nothing but ignorant robots. Evidence the recent controversy at Solidarity House here in Detroit where they chose to ban any foreign cars owned by military personnel from parking on their lot.....
The UAW Benefits Rep. for my company on the east side of Detroit actually defended his homies action despite the fact that his own son was a marine.........

The actions cited above were orchestrated by union activists. Activists in unions constitute a small minority, 15 percent at most by my estimates. I would not underestimate the potential strength of rank and file union members to spontaneously become a political force in the culture wars. More are socially conservative in my experience than are those in other work sectors. The problem with unions is that the national organizations have taken over the operations that once were held at a local level. The communist national organizers are using the national organizations to orchestrate politics. This is one of he reasons that strikes are now rare compared to twenty and thirty years ago. The national leaderships are making their pacts with corporations and the devil. The bankrupt pension plans are soon coming home to roost.
Don't be surprised to wake up one day and see trade locals revolting from national leadership. I would love to see them burn effigies of their leadership.
EXCUSE ME but I am a member of the rank and file and I am no robot! I oppose homosexual rights and believe marriage is between a man and a woman.
