First of all, lets dismiss any talk of socialism, says Democrat strategist Bob Beckel, who worked in Jimmy Carters White House with a Democrat-controlled Congress. The idea that Barack Obama is going to bring socialism to this country is just crazy.
Beckel says that, in government and politics, the policy pendulum always swings back and forth and, particularly in this economic crisis, people will want and Obama will deliver more government involvement.
They feel more comfortable with that than they do with a bunch of people on Wall Street, he says.
In the first line he states that Obama won’t bring socialism to America.
And in the next two lines he defines EXACTLY what socialism is and tries to say the people WANT it.
