----- Thomas (November 20, 1884 to December 19, 1968) Norman Mattoon Thomas (November 20, 1884 to December 19, 1968) was a leading American socialist, pacifist, and six-time presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America. Norman Thomas, said this in a 1944 speech: "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism', they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened." He went on to say: "I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democrat Party has adopted our platform." ____________________________________________________________________ Margaret Thatcher, Prime Minister, United Kingdom: "The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money." __________________________________ NObama is the poster boy for Socialist America!
