Speaker: Brian Kelly (Lecturer in US History, Quenns University Belfast and author of Race, Class and Power in the Alabama coalfields)
Will a Democrat President end the war?
Written by ALAN MAASS from US paper socialistworker.org
MILLIONS OF people voted in the Super Tuesday primaries for Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton in the hopes that a Democratic president will end the U.S. war on Iraq. But as ALAN MAASS shows, the record of the Democratic Party when it comes to war and peace is reason to think again.

The only presidential candidate who has given a full commitment to pulling U.S. troops out of Iraq is the Republican hopeful Dr.Ron Paul. And yes, he still is in the race for the nomination.

Ron Paul is a racist, right-wing crackpot who will soon scuttle back under that rock.
A 1992 political newsletter by former Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, included portrayals of African-Americans as inclined toward crime and lacking sense about political issues, the Houston Chronicle reported Thursday. Paul, a former Libertarian Party presidential candidate who defeated Democratic-turned-Republican Rep. Greg Laughlin in the March primary, in November will face Democratic attorney Charles (Lefty) Morris, whose campaign is distributing Paul's writings. Under the headline "Terrorist Update," Paul reported on gang crime in Los Angeles and wrote, "If you have ever been robbed by a black teenaged male, you know how unbelievably fleet-footed they can be." About blacks in Washington, D.C., Paul wrote, "I think we can safely assume that 95 percent of the black males in that city are semi-criminal or entirely criminal."
Obama is the most qualified person. Should the left support him?
