[Peace-discuss] Paul Jay interview with Nina Turner in relation to the People's Summit.

[Karen Aram]

Interesting interview. The People’s Summit, is in fact, the Democratic Party Summit, given they would not allow The Green Party, or Socialist Alternative to participate.  Last year it was all about promotion of Hillary, this year's focus is on Bernie. Discussion revolves around reform of the Democratic Party, with focus on electoral politics, because mere reform unless there are significant changes in the "system" of government, will do nothing to change the Party's policies. Paul Jay did elicit, finally, an acknowledgement that the Peoples Summit, the Democratic Party only focuses on domestic issues, avoiding all discussion of foreign policy. He also made the point, that supplying billions of dollars to the US war machine, while cutting social services is and should be the main concern or topic of discussion, not his words, mine.
