I Support the Lerner Peace Plan

"So the central criterion for who should be the candidate of the Democrats should be: who can provide and has the courage to articulate an alternative worldview that could help people understand the validity of the strategy of generosity and the historical failure over and over again of the strategy of domination."
Rabbi Michael Lerner
Rabbi Lerner's Strategy for Peace

Nicely articulated scenario. This is the "big thinking" that Katha Pollitt called for in January's The Nation; too bad she didn't get the distinction between "spirituality" and "religion". I think that's small thinking, Katha.
