Interesting fella this Alinsky

I suspect that Alinsky would have agreed and further defined a true radical as one with balls the size of elephants, skin as thick as sharks, eyes as fearsome as a war veterans, having an AK 47 in one's closet to use when the merda really hits the fan, and finally the oratory of a firebrand preacher. He sounds like he was a man of real conviction. That being said, I am not sure what he would make of the problem of immigration, particularly when presented with the dimension that the poor of one country are causing competition for the native. I suppose he would not have focused on this issue and would have attempted to address other aspects of the problem, potentially violating his own rule of going outside one's experience.

Hasta otra ocasion
