Jill Stein Arrested: Green Party Nominee Faces Charges After Bank Protest

Not Ike. REAGAN.  

In February 2008, Obama expressed his admiration for Reagan, who “brought stability” to the country after those years of unrest.  Think about that.  The years that ensured equality and civil rights when people stood up to the insanity of our involvement in Vietnam.  Obama would have to make a hard left turn to qualify as a moderate Republican of the 20th century.

The two parties have been working in concert, in tandem, while giving the impression that they're diametrically opposed.

People forget that Clinton set up much of what BushCheney managed to do with legislatio­n like the Telecommun­ications Act of 1996, the Welfare Reform Act, assaults on civil liberties, etc.  

And just as Republican­s paralyzed any Clinton in the last years of his term from being able to deliver to the People, it would be deja vu all over again given the schemes that Bill Clinton has been involved in since leaving the White House.

In his book The Audacity of Hope, Obama presented himself as the latest in a long line of corporate, Democrats, interested in tinkering with the system but largely agreeing with the consensus on free markets, free trade, and US. military power.

As the February 2011 cover story in TIME explains, Obama even agrees with many of the fundamenta­ls of Reaganism, telling reporters, "What Reagan ushered in was a skepticism toward government solutions to every problem. I don't think that has changed." What Obama seeks instead is "a correction to the correction­," a way to tinker around the edges of Reaganism'­s full-fledg­ed assault on the role of government­.

As Roger Hodge points out in his recent book, The Mendacity of Hope, "Obama praises Clinton for putting a 'progressi­ve slant on some of Reagan's goals,' by which he presumably means Clinton's wholesale adoption of the Republican economic agenda, from passing NAFTA to cutting taxes, gutting the welfare system, and embracing the rhetoric of small government­".

There really isn't any difference between the parties, only in their style and how they go about achieving the same ends.
