Sanders, Bernard | June 21, 1993 issue

add to cart   close window

The U.S. President Bill Clinton has to become the boldest leader of modern times. The politics of yesterday, the back-room deals with Congressional leaders, will not work. Clinton must get out of Washington and rally the American people against the greed and self-interest of a ruling elite that is causing massive suffering for tens of millions of working people. More and more Americans are free-falling into an economic abyss. At least 2 million Americans are homeless; 22 percent of our children live in poverty, including 5 million who are hungry; 37 million Americans lack any health insurance; and more and more workers earn subpoverty wages.
