What attitude do YOU think this party should have about George McGovern's ideals?

[Ken Burch]

The senator is still with us, but his daughter has said he's nearing the end.

George McGovern stood for peace, social equality, a clean environment and a decent life for all. He also felt that we shouldn't be trying to order the world around anymore and that we shouldn't act as if every revolt against a "pro-American" regime is nothing but a Communist plot.

Our party has spent most of the last forty years going out of its way to repudiate the above ideals...with mixed electoral results at best.

As we prepare to say farewell to the man from South Dakota, shouldn't we welcome back, at long last, the dreams he helped a generation fight for?
