Of course, I phrased it somewhat provocatively (my fans would expect nothing less). I really would like to find a balanced book on the effect that the hippies, Black Power, etc. had on center-left politics in the 60's and 70's. There are lessons to be learned from that time that I don't think we've been able to come to terms with and integrate into a workable progressive program, supported by a majority of American voters, even four decades later.

I'm glad. I didn't expect so

I'm glad. I didn't expect so much content so quickly. I hope that folks keep it up.

That is a good topic. I don't completely agree with the thesis. That is, I don't think that the New Left fucked liberalsm so much as failed to save it. But there's good stuff there nonetheless. I'm pursuing another topic right now--government dysfunction--but I'll keep this in mind.

This is somewhat off-topic,

This is somewhat off-topic, but are you planning another book? I think a useful topic would be the short-lived rise of the New Left and how they fucked liberalism up for a generation (at least).
