I agree,, and im stunned to find myself thinking Clinton was at least not a full on revolutionary. This current crowd is different somehow.

Obama is surrounding himself with a lot of Clintonites, which might cause him to trust their experience and restrain his more radical impulses. Except that what restrained them in the past were Clinton himself (the Great Triangulator) and the political backdrop of the 1990s, in which conservatives were still influential players in Washington.

Clinton is now out of the picture, while George Bush and Republicans in Congress have pretty much cured the "problem" of any residual conservative influence. But Obama himself is the bigger concern - he is very different from Clinton. I do not believe he is as interested (as Bill was) in the trappings of power as he is interested in the exercise of power.

This crowd was trained in secular colleges by the likes of many Ayers & Dohrn professors from radical SDS, which had 100,000 member in 1968 and decided to become educators...they determined the future working class of America would be college educated...see how it worked.
