“Of all the men that have run for president in the twentieth century, only George McGovern truly understood what a monument America could be to the human race” - Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ‘72
George McGovern died this morning. A great man who could have made the destiny of this nation very different. The last true liberal who challenged the military-industrial complex to run for President. RIP George
Fuck, how was I not aware of this? Goddamn shame.
Few days ago now, actually.
