[Bob Seger]

Actually, several documentaries are just full of all manner of "real time" interviews of all manner of people at the time.

You and I mostly agree on "something for nothing" welfare programs that end up doing little or nothing to break cycles of generational poverty. However, "goodies" do not explain the overwhelming preference African Americans show for the Democratic Party.

Republicans still use "the southern strategy." Both parties, TRT, appeal to the base, and, often, not in the most virtuous of ways. The desire to win and truthfulness and integrity are often at odds.

I personally view Ali as heroic in his conscientious objecting to the Viet Nam War from his perspective. Nothing we've exchanged here has changed your mind or mine. That isn't always the purpose of debate. In this case, it certainly wasn't mine. I leave the Ali debate remembering that you use "Cassius Clay" as a taunt, and with the Ali directed "loud mouth coward" phrase echoing in my head. The "Big Tent" is shrinking.
