That’s an excellent presentation, Fedora.
I find these parts especially interesting:
“When Schechter asked why, he was told that Hillary was working on health care now and she did not want to alienate Daniel Patrick Moynihan...”
“Rodham argued that Moynihan’s approach was an undemocratic imposition of legislation on the masses rather than the type of community-based empowerment Alinsky advocated.”
Seems to me that she wished to avoid exposure as a gross hypocrite, since her health care “solution” was nothing if not “undemocratic imposition of legislation on the masses”.
The thesis also reveals the self-contradiction implicit in her rejection of the “Alinsky model” in favor of making change through taking over government. Hillary’s model boils down to undemocratic imposition; she just wants to be the imposer.
Excellent observations. I hadn’t heard about the Moynihan rationale for not releasing her thesis before I started doing the research to write this, so that is interesting to me as well.
