The Newer Deal: The Path to a Democratic Supermajority | The New America Foundation

The Newer Deal: The Path to a Democratic Supermajority, by Michael Lind (Salon, 2008-08-15) | The New America Foundation; ``Social conservatives, having lost the culture war, should be offered not only a truce but also an opportunity to join a broad economic campaign for a middle-class America, as many of them did between 1932 and 1968. When pro-choicers and pro-lifers unite in cheering the public investment and living wage planks at the convention of the neo-Roosevelt party, we will know that the political era that began in 1968 is truly and finally over.''
