>CB: How is Nader more than a left Democrat ?

Politically, he is no different than a left Democrat. For that matter, he
couldn't hold a candle to Henry Gonzalez. The importance of Nader, however,
is his independence. If we are going to make genuine progress in the
country, it will be as a result of unremitting struggle against both
capitalist parties.

((((((((((((

CB: The necessity of unremitting struggle against both capitalist parties is a theory, hypothesis. What is the proof of it ?

 Historically, the working class has made genuine progress by tactical participation in capitalist parties (Civil War, New Deal, Civil Rights), evidence that opposition to capitalist parties is tactical, not high principle.
