jaydub Mach1 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Norman Mattoon Thomas (1884—1968) was a leading American socialist, pacifist, and six-time presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America. In 1927 he predicted: "..The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened..." Are we there yet???
