Is this when Obama worked for a state PIRG? Was it NYPIRG? I have first hand experience with the PIRGs in roughly that time period. The staff people were extremely left wing radical functionaries. basd on my experience, I would find it hard to respect anyone who was a PIRG staffer.
Yep, i had dealings with NYPIRG people in Buffalo in the 70s, and they were cutting edge leftist. Thinking back on it now, i am quite sure that one of the SUNY buffalo professors who taught in the “Left Wing” dept was affiliated with a Buffalo cell.
You got it, so perhaps we can thank Nader for the training he provided so Obama could teach University students how to recycle things like their coffee cups! Thanks! Couldn’t remember the initials for the life of me!
