The People's Mandate---"Harness that Anger"

"Sooner or later, profound change will come to this nation tired of war, tired of seeing its wealth squandered, while the basic needs of families are not met. These needs are not hard to describe. Some are very practical, some are requirements of the soul: health care, work, living wages, a sense of dignity, a feeling of being at one with our fellow human beings on this Earth.

The people of this country have their own mandate."

Howard Zinn wrote this fantastic article for the "Progressive." I found it on "Common Dreams."

He encourages all of the people who worked so hard to elect Kerry (or unseat Bush), not to lose focus. We may have taken a blow on Nov.2, but we're not out. We can still work on and make a difference in 2006 and 2008.
