The speaker talks about how the USSR helped the U.S. working class, and made things like the impeachment of Clinton impossible.

2. What an idiot.
His claim is that Americans didn't spit on black people during the Cold War? Really? Did this man have a TV in 1957? 1968?

I agree that we have a runaway rightwing problem, but his ideas are a little naive and his arguments a little full of forced justification.

3. They could never spit on "Black Legislators". Did you see Black Legislators
get spit upon in 1957? 1968?
