Clark at NYU: Dems Don't Challenge * Administration

[Avalux]

<snip>
“The 2004 election is not about terror, and it’s not about jobs. It’s
about preserving a vigorous two-party system, with serious, enthusiastic debate.” Not that he would make that a campaign slogan – it’s what an intelligent observer of the system sees as in deep trouble. As he does in Waging Modern War <‘WMW’>, Clark regrets America’s “turn inward” in the post-Cold War world. But it’s clearly not just the common folk and big business Clark is referring to: he’s bothered by the failure of the Democratic Party to vigorously and persistently challenge the Bush Administration across the board. As he had done in some of his TV appearances, he refers to the Patriot Act with thinly veiled disdain, seasoned with dismay (as if to say “How’s this guy getting away with this?”). Several times over the course of the evening, Clark spoke emphatically of fighting to preserve our rights of privacy.
