Jesse Jackson
Mario Cuomo
Edward Brooke
Colin Powell
Hillary Clinton
If I were of voting age in 1988, the apex of the Jesse Jackson trip, I’d have voted for him. His policy proposals would’ve been good in 84 or 88, but his policy stances represented the necessary reversal that needed to take place to combat the Reagnomics-Reagan Revolution consensus. I feel the same way about Mario Cuomo. The others are just good leaders with moderate-to-liberal positions.I'm legitimately curious how one can think Jesse " campaign platform includes cutting DOD funding by fifteen percent, slavery reparations, new WPA, immediate nuclear freeze" Jackson would be a good President while simultaneously thinking the same thing about Colin Powell and Hillary Clinton, who to make a massive understatement don't support any of those things.

There's even a chance that the 9/11 attacks might have been stopped by US intelligence agencies if the negative effects of the handing over of the presidency would not have impacted them....

I think his measures would have been more moderated (and less expensive) and would have aimed at building a stronger International consensus. ...
