A myth equal to the fable of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction is gaining strength on both sides of the Atlantic. It is that John Kerry offersa world-view different from that of George W Bush. Watch this big lie grow as Kerry is crowned the Democratic candidate and the "anyone but Bush" movement becomes a liberal cause celebre.

"Our only political party has two right wings, one called Republican, the other Democratic." --Gore Vidal

My first day back to the NYC commute after spending a week in Santa Cruz serving as MC for One Dance: The People's Summit was something out of a hackneyed Hollywood script. As I tried to enter the N Train, hordes of passengers were de-boarding. Being five stops away from Manhattan, I knew those folks were not really getting off the train. That's when the savvy commuter glances into the train for a look and immediately notices a homeless man sleeping in the corner. I didn't even have to enter the car to fill in the blanks. The homeless man must have been, uh, malodorous. I dashed to the next car (with everyone else) and crammed myself in...surrounded by New Yorkers puffed up to double their normal size in winter gear. Standing close enough to my fellow plebeians to smell the bad breath, the toxic perfumes, and the embedded stench of cigarettes, I tried to think about California and One Dance (http://www.onedancesummit.org).

Throughout history there has been an alternative idea of democracy - this is the idea of direct democracy. It surfaced during the Paris Commune (in 1871), it surfaced in Russia during the early part of the revolution there, and it was put into large-scale practice in Spain between 1936-37. It is the method often used by workers in a strike; it is the method that often arises 'spontaneously' when people confront the State or the bosses. Direct democracy is the democracy that anarchists advocate.

With the Bill Clinton adiministration drawing to a close, it should be painfully obvious that Clinton, Al Gore, and the Democratic Party are no different than the Republicans. We find it amazing that many progressives have recently come to Gore's defense during his campaign. They aren't defending him from George Bush, rather the Nader campaign.

Your webmaster predicted back during the 1992 Presidential race that under a Clinton administration, human rights would be violated around the world, the police state would increase, censorship would increase, the pace that the environment is being ruined would remain the same, and that Bill Clinton is, above all else, a friend of capitalists and an enemy of labor.

While historically anarchists assiduously avoided any involvement with electoral politics, in more recent times, at least in the united states, some anarchists have advocated voting. The arguments these voting anarchists put forward are generally the same as those put forward by other leftists who are unable or unwilling to completely sever their connection to the political process. They argue that voting for their candidate, usually described as a lesser evil and usually (if not always) a Democrat, is necessary to prevent united states aggression against some favored revolutionary state (like sandinista nicaragua), is some sort of self-defense against the more conservative candidate, or is merely better than "apathy," as some describe abstention from voting. While one could argue against voting simply because it rarely, if ever, accomplishes any of the goals its advocates claim it can, there is a more fundamental reason for anarchists to oppose voting: voting in government elections is an inherently authoritarian activity, and authoritarian means never yield libertarian results.
