The Obama Deception: Why Cornel West Went Ballistic By Chris Hedges
May 16, 2011 - "I don’t think in good conscience I could tell anybody to vote for Obama.
If it turns out in the end that we have a crypto-fascist movement and
the only thing standing between us and fascism is Barack Obama, then we
have to put our foot on the brake. But we’ve got to think seriously of
third-party candidates, third formations, third parties."
