Hope everyone had a good break! These two articles from The Nation were really awesome. The first is an op-ed supporting Obama written by four big-name progressive leaders: Tom Hayden, Bill Fletcher Jr., Danny Glover and Barbara Ehrenreich. They talk about how the huge grassroots movement that has sprung up in support of Obama is very promising for progressives as a whole.

The second is Howard Zinn's reasoning why Democrats should look to FDR and offer a huge New Deal-like platform in the 2008 elections.
