Why Bernie CanĀt Win, and The Nomination is HillaryĀs, unless Obama wants to dispose of her
āCertain people may win early primaries but have nowhere to go. Thereās no way Bernie Sanders will be able to deal with the black firewall in the South. Heās gonna lose every Southern state to Hillary, because all the black political bosses are behind her, and his gravy train will stop somewhere in New Hampshire, and I donāt see him going much beyond that. Heās sort of in the same position that Pat [Buchanan] was back in 1992, he has only very limited firepower that he could useā¦ā
āThereās no way [Hillary] could be denied the nomination given the power block that she has available to her at this point. Sheās lined up these party bosses years in advance. She would really have to start hemorrhaging votes in order to lose that support, and I really donāt see those black democrats coming around and voting for Sanders at this point, nor does anybody elseā¦ā
ā[Whether or not Hillary gets into legal trouble over the e-mail scandal] all depends on what Obama wants to do. I think thereās enough to go after her. Itās a question of whether Loretta Lynch, who is entirely under the thumb of Obama, will allow it to go forward. Even if the FBI says there are grounds to prosecute her for something, I doubt that Obama is going to allow Lynch to proceed against her, unless he decides that he wants to get rid of her as a political figure. And there is bad blood between them. Letās say he decides that heās gonna back Joe Biden or some other candidate, then he just might let her twist in the wind.ā
Nevertheless, whether you like socialism or not, Sanders is not a socialist: he calls neither for nationalizing the means of production nor for replacing the market economy with central planning. Yet that is what socialism came to mean in the mid-20th century. Democratic socialism meant that socialism would be achieved through the ballot box.
It is worth noting that in late 19th- and early 20th-century America, socialism was an umbrella term that was also used by radical free-market, or individualist, anarchists like Benjamin R. Tucker and Francis Dashwood Tandy, who called his 1896 book Voluntary Socialism. A socialist then was anyone who objected that workers were cheated out of their full reward and that prices of goods were fixed above the cost of production; in contrast to state socialists, free-market socialists attributed these evils to ācapitalism,ā by which they meant the system of government privileges for well-connected owners of capital.
