Very interesting article on America's white supremicists. I'm trying to figure out how this group plays in the country's electoral politics. They've always seemed too small and fringe a group to make any difference,but I'm not so sure about that now.

This should be required reading ~ it paints a very ugly picture of a wide swath of sociopathy [focusing on a strong sense of "entitlement"] and explains how and why "some" learned to manipulate that sociopathy ~

I'm not sure how the author arrived at the 100,000 number, and I'm not denying that 100,000-strong can still do a LOT of damage ~ but in my view, when compared to 300+million in population that is still [in gramps' words] "... small and fringe ..." ~

I need to read thru this commentary again ~ and I strongly urge all VoC members to do so as well ~

If it's only 100,000 there wouldn't be so many Tea Partiers in Congress.

Did you read the commentary, oskar? ~ the 100,000 number represents the original core of the problem ~

Yes, and I'm still convinced he "misunderestimated" by far.

How many Fox news people, how many Limbaughs and Becks does it take to screw up this country?
