I believe the Stalin-Trotsky analogy is apt also. Not because there is likely to be physical violence or attempted coups at the top but there certainly will be ideological struggles because he who wins those battles captures the apparatus of the United States government and has a real chance at world suzerainty. I have predicted since before the election that we're likely to see these struggles as soon as the left feels that it has extinguished any reactionary threat from the right. We might expect to see that to occur between Hillary and Obama.
Thanks, your posts are always interesting. My questions are just my way of trying to get closer to the truth, although I am no Socrates.
I thought you would also draw a parallel of Trotsky vs. German fascism and (potentially) Obama vs. Islamic fascists, since neither Hitler nor the Islamic fascists are interested in sharing power if they win. Maybe that is implied.
