In your view, what are the first steps toward making 3rd-party candidates for the US presidency "viable"? |

Question for Howard Zinn |
|
|
|
|
|
I've heard many (maybe too many) comparisons between Barack Obama and J.F. Kennedy. What do you see as similarities/differences in the Presidents themselves as well as the popular reactions to them, more specifically the mobilization and empowered feeling of young folks (which some argue later led to a more radical outcry by those empowered by the elections people of color, students, etc.)? |

for Howard Zinn on Obama |

Prof. Zinn,
What is the future of civil liberties in the Obama administration? I am concerned about the abridgment of civil liberties by both the government and by private actors (such as hospitals that deport the uninsured). |

How can the Obama administration better address the interests and needs of the Palestinian people? Should the Obama administration remove Hamas from its "terrorism" list? |

Very nice changes started already, this could be the best time to be alive. Going from worst to best overnight is right in front of us. Everyone I talk to or hear from including Zinn has this feeling of something better in the future and less violence. Awesome.... |

American isolationism and global commitments |
|
|
|
|
|
America's skills in refurbishing its myths of internal cohesion, while finding ways to project its interests abroad, has proven once again very effective, mesmerizing the world in its wake. Now that the ever resurgent idea of America's innocence moves from a clumsy denunciation of evil towards a more amiable hope of change, is the American public ready to engage in the global conversation and live up to its commitments without resorting to poorly planned action justified by best intentions? |

Howard Zinn on Robama |
|
|
|
|
|
We will have millions of people disappointed, frustrated and impoverished. We will have a one world currency and massive environmental destruction.
Has Zinn been threatened? Look at who is who in the Robama dream team and you will see that he already started with the wrong foot.
From Rahmbo Emannuel to Vocker, Summers and other facists, Robama has already doomed his "presidency". He is like Blair in 1997. |

Do we have a chance? |
|
|
|
|
|
Obama started out as a anti-war candidate, but then contradicted himself in one of his debates with John McCain, saying that if Pakistan does not cooperate in tracking down terroists, we "America" might have to. Do you have any insights in this issue, and about the issue of war and Obama in general? |

Obamas team is scary |
|
|
|
|
|
Apart from Rahm Emmanuel, major Indian dailies Hindustan Times and Times of India have disclosed that his financial advisor Sonal Shah is close to VHP, the Indian fascist group, responsible for the muslim genocide in Gujarat.
If she is given the financial advisor position, its a terrible situation for the minorities in India. |

After white America was ready to give up on the cities and flee to suburbia, only then did they surrender control to black leaders. Now that they are ready to give up on the disasters they have created in the world, now again they turn to the black leaders to clean up the mess. The key now is maintaining a balance of power and embracing the shift towards caring about people, not their background. |

Obama is more dangerous than MacCain, in this moment when finally the American people were starting to insurge aganst capitalism, Obama was intentionally put there to stop them. |
