MSNBC reminds us who's close to John Edwards:
Gearing up for his second presidential run, John Edwards picked an unconventional campaign manager. Rather than choosing a behind-the-scenes staffer, he selected David Bonior, a Michigan Democrat who served 26 years in the U.S. House of Representatives (1976-2002) and earned a reputation as his party's pit bull for the aggressive posture he took with the GOP.
This is the same David Bonior who
attended the 2003 Democratic Socialists of America National Convention.Here's what the socialists reported:
Largely due to the excellent connections of Detroit DSA, plenary sessions at the convention featured an exceptional number of elected officials, including Congressman John Conyers (D-MI), former Congressman David Bonior and Canadian MP Joe CoMartin of the New Democratic Party. Other notable speakers included DSA Honorary Chair and Princeton professor Cornel West, who had to beg off from the 2001 Convention at the last moment due to health problems, but who was present for most of this Convention, attending workshops and plenary sessions as well as addressing the delegates.
Maryann Mahaffee, President of Detroit City Council and longtime DSA member, welcomed the delegates to the city. She said that “socialism-what the world, the earth, gives to us being equally available to everybody-just makes sense.” Delegates also received a surprise welcome from Congressman Conyers, who wasn't scheduled to speak until the next evening.
To the New York Times and the rest of the MSM,Comrade Bonier is just a liberal.But,as you can see socialism is the goal.
