Yet a century ago progressives fought back and passed laws that empowered the middle class and restricted the influence of money in government.

In this conversation with The Nation and On the Earth Productions recorded at Chicago's Orrington Hotel, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. says that activists must renew the old struggle against corporate tyranny—and fight to restore the democratic achievements of the Progressive Era and the New Deal. Kennedy has long been active in the environmental justice movement, and his latest efforts to stop mountaintop removal mining are featured in the new documentary, The Last Mountain.

Just ask some of their past Assassination Victims, JFK, RFK, MLK, Malcom X, Hariri, Gemayel, Archbishop Romero, Paul Wellstone, Gary Webb, The DC Maddam, Bhutto in Pakistan, etc. Don't trust any Police, FBI, CIA, or Secret Service in you intend to do so, for they will be your enemies Trojan Horse. And don't expect no Attacks from Satanic Law Fakirs in Both Parties, trying to protect their Satanic Coporate Benefactors and Campaign Donors.

Don't worry about the idea of Breaking The Law, it was Illegal for America to Declare Independence from the British in 1776, just as it was illegal for The Scotts to Declare Independence from The British in the Days of William Wallace.","author":"CIA Killed JFK, RFK, MLK, and Malcom X","parent_id":246913,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2011-07-12 15:27:26","modified":"2011-07-12 15:27:26","fileurl":""}]}
