That is interesting. I'd be curious to see what Obama has to say about it. Of course I don't really have a problem with a bit of socialist democracy mixed in with my capitalism. I haven't heard of the New Party or the DSA though, so I'm not sure what all they stand for.
Corporate responsibility, universal health care, market regulation that takes social good into account...those are things I can get behind.
