Republished from Democratic Campaign Watch --
Knowledgeable news makers are now advising us to use our civic organizations to preserve democracy against the rising fascist threat. This threat, as we understand it, is arising from aggrieved persons who are being stoked by various prominent individuals into a high state of anger and agitation. As such, this stoking is the most dangerous thing I have seen in my lifetime.
It seems, though, that there is hope. For instance recent polling indicates the American public now favors Democrats over Republicans in Congressional races this fall.* This is a big change from polling on the subject last fall.
But in order to avoid a similar situation as in Weimar Germany, we must do much, much more to stem the rising tide of mindless anarchy which so saliently threatens our way of life. This we can do. But more importantly in the short term, the media must stop framing the crisis as politics-as-usual. That is not reality. The real story is that one Party has been taken over by radicals. Increasingly, it is also becoming clear that these radicals are supported by a well-funded and organized effort aimed at subverting the will of a people who are no longer willing to accept rule-by-the-rich in America.
