Re: Sush! Don't burst the dream world

On Hillary's thesis: Here's a paragraph near the end. The bizarre verbiage and interpretation are Clinton's. The correlation between the TVA and McCarthy campaign will remain a mystery for all time, and I have no clue what "stand about moving people out of the ghetttoes, have little chance of over being legislated" means, but there you have it. They were kids. Idealistic, not such great writers - but kids - and neither Obama or Clinton should be attacked for what they wrote as undergraduates. "The TVA-like proposals, reminiscent of Senator Eugene McCarthy's 1968 Presidential campaign, stand about moving people out of the ghettoes, have little chance of over being legislated. Although they would not be considered too radical in many more centralized welfare states, they are "revolutionary" within a mass production/consumption state, particularly the United States. Must definitions perhaps be as fluid as the actions they purport to describe?"
