Cornel West-Jimmy Dore Interview: The Limits of Eclecticism

We were not disappointed by this interview because we could have predicted it.

West’s insistence on not making social class the top priority in his campaign shows he has “nuanced” his way out of a clear message to working class, middle class and poor people. His failure to understand how the Democratic Party has blocked a mass socialist party from forming for 50 years exposes how far away he is from being committed to a third party. We hope the Greens or the People’s Party will provide us with a real radical socialist candidate.
