Yesterday, I proposed a project intended to present Hillary Clinton's record on the issues of the day juxtaposed against Left Flank views on these issues. My commitment is to devote a front page Sunday essay to each of the identified issues based on either relying n diaries or articles identified to me as (a) describing Hillary Clinton's positions and/or a representative description of the Left Flank view on these issues.
The issues I'd like to see covered: (1) income inequality; (2) financial regulation; (3) Social Security; (4) Medicare; (5) Medicaid and children's health insurance; (6) foreign policy; (7) climate and environment; (8) national education policies and financial aid and loans for educational purposes; (9) trade policies; (10) government disclosure policies; (11) voting rights; (12) discrimination issues; (13) criminal law enforcement issues; and (14) any other issue that interests the Left Flank.
For the first essay, I would like to concentrate on issues 1 and 2.
Please let me know about good diaries and articles via Kosmail with the subject line "Hillary Clinton positions/Left Flank."
Target for first essay is March 29. To meet this target I must submit essay for editing by March 27 at 3 pm Eastern.
Please note the idea is not for me to give you my thought on this but to instead be a conduit for Left Flanks views. Thus whether this project happens or not is dependent on Left Flankers. IF the material is sent to me, I will post a Sunday essay on the particular issues. If not, this project obviously won't come to fruition.
Thanks for the assistance.
[UPDATE] Let me take a moment to describe how I foresee the essay. I would take the links provided to me, quote as extensively as copyright law permits on the issue at hand for each link. Since each essay will address the specific identified topic, this should require minimal editing from me beyond choosing the excerpt. As I say, my idea is that I am merely a conduit. My participation would come in the comments.
