Re: [Marxism] How to respond to following Obama-vote logic?

["S. Artesian" <sartesian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Nothing snide-- you were comparing that argument to arguments about national 
liberation struggles and civil rights struggles.  Way out of proportion to 
the actual contest. The Obama candidacy is NOTHING like the national 
liberation struggles, the civil rights struggles; not even anything like the 
Kucinich campaign.

Why would you argue with someone who says and quite rightly, that if Obama 
gets in the White House, a) the house stays white  and b) the 
psycho-marketeers of democracy will argue that it is the ultimate evidence 
that racism is no longer present in the US and then use that as the reason 
for dismantling what remains of protective legislation?  Unless you think an 
Obama victory is a plus?  So do you?  And if you do, I refer you back to my 
previous comment.
