I happened to be visiting veteran Trotskyist labor leader Ray Dunne the day George McGovern called for immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from Vietnam. Ray animatedly pointed out how important that call was, because it showed a serious split among ruling-class politicians. It also put wind in the sails of those radicals like ourselves who, in contradistinction to the Communist Party and many pacifists, as well a Democrat Party liberals, said the United States should get the hell out of Vietnam immediately, arguing that it had no business being there in the first place and that there was nothing to negotiate. Sad to see McGovern taking a less radical approach now.
