    How many Americans know who Sweeney was? I had the pleasure of meeting him…a helluva and a deep thinker…

        He was a deep socialist thinker…..whose ideas ran along democratic socialist lines at times…..I met him at a conference that I gave a paper to many years ago….a great guy.

      Politics runs hot and cold. At times I am into it, and other times, I seem to get turned off by it.

      I think the norm went by way of the dinosaurs.
