Charles Davis writes a good article, contrasting president Obama with right-wing 'Tea Party' politician Ron Paul.

Obama has expanded the wars of his predecessor, whereas Paul allegedly wants to restrain them.

"Democratic partisans – liberals – are willing to trade the lives of a couple thousand poor Pakistani tribesman in exchange for a few liberal catnip-filled speeches and NPR tote bags for the underprivileged."

It's to Dissident Voice's credit that it ran this article, which undermines any basis for identifying with the left at all.

It would be a mistake to think voting could change anything, and the article does mention the extra-parliamentary movement against Johnson's administration during the Vietnam war.
