Larger font size or changed margin settings?
Of course...it's August, the time of minimum public attention paid to media....
bump assuming it has not be sanitized.
“But I sure don’t agree with almost everything I scribbled down from those days.”
SONG LYRICS; “YOU!”
“You haven’t changed at all/
Since you were seventeen/
When you raised your voice/
And so impressed yourself/
That today you STILL believe/
All the silly good intentions/
In your adolescent master plan...”
I wrote this about 14 years ago in mind of the loudmouth sector of the “Boomers”. I don’t believe I have ever written truer words.
When you read the thesis, you will see that for the last 38 years she has lived what she wrote.
“There is only one fight bite …” an analysis of that LEWinsky Model.....
Bump!
If I ran for president and someone got a hold of my college papers, I’d have a lot of explaining to do. I was a Marxist back then. Like many Marxists, I also had issues with narcissism and depression. Many of those papers are downright embarrassing now.
On the other hand, I could explain my intellectual journey away from there. The question I would ask of Hillary is “explain your intellectual journey away from this thesis. How has your thought process changed?”
If we got an answer that sounded honest, I could respect that. I still wouldn’t vote for her, but I would respect her for answering the questions
The problem is that very little that Hillary says sounds particularly honest. She seems to have a focus group stuck in her head. When she said she’d always been a Yankees fan, for example, that on its face is possible. But there would have to be a story there.
How does a girl from the Chicago suburbs become a Yankee fan? A favorite uncle from Manhattan who took her to games? She thought Mantle was cute? But she never had a story. All she had was the poll-driven claim that she was always a Yankee fan.
If someone asked her about her thesis, she’d probably have six or seven poll-driven responses. “I still believe in social justice.” “As a mother, I’ve learned that you have to compromise.” Etc. Etc. But she’d be unlikely to tell the real story of her intellectual journey (if there was one) from that thesis to her current views. Hillary will do anything to keep the real Hillary from making an appearance.
I’m still waiting for one of her cohorts to squeal on her about the death of Vince Foster, the stolen FBI documents, and the missing Rose law firm documents.
Can they be silent forever?
bump
If it helps her politically, of course she will.
She can always say that she no longer subscribes to those "radical" ideas, but can we trust that she is telling the truth?
Sweet!
And it is 15 months away from an "October Surprise" time frame.
Is there an html version of it?
We should all download and save this quickly. The Hillary machine will try very hard to get this pulled.
“What does the radical want? He wants a world in which the worth of the individual is recognized....A world based on the morality of mankind...The radical believes that all peoples should have a high standard of food, housing and health. The radical places human rights far above property rights. He is fro free, universal public education and recognizes this as fundamental to the democratic way of life... Democracy to him is working from the bottom up....the Radical believes completely in real quality of opportunity for all peoples regardless of race color or creed.” - (quote from Saul Alinsky)
Much of what Alinsky professes does not sound “radical”. his are the words used in schools and churches, by our parents and their friends, by our peers. The difference is that Alinsky really believes in them and recognizes the necessity of changing the present structure of our lives in order to realize them.

This is a sample of what is inside this thesis.
Is there an html version of it?
Well said. Very well said.
When you read the thesis from front to back, you will see that there is no intellectual journey away from this thesis. This truly is the “Rosetta Stone” of Hillary’s life and thought. The things she says in this thesis are echoes every day in her public pronouncements.

"Exploiting nonrealistic conflict". "...'rubbing raw the sores of discontent' without any specific goal in mind.
Sounds like a DNC modus operandi if I'd ever heard one.
