Antiimperialist. And imperialism is the mechanism that creates centralized control, that serves the dictates of empire at the expense of the citizenry. And that it is not just militarism in terms of that is financially disemboweling the country, but it is also and both parties are guilty of this creating an ideology, one where we defy the military. We dedei identify systems of internal security and the consequence this kind of protest ofascism we are seeing now in trump rallies, and and im looking for a candidate and of course its political suicide, as George Mcgovern found out or Henry Wallace found out, but im luking for a radical candidate that understands the first step on the road to socialism is the destruction of american imperialism. [applause] chris hedges, tariq ali, and medea benjamin. Thank you all. See you tomorrow, bright and early. [inaudible conversations] booktv visited capitol hill to ask members of congress what theyre reading. I read constantly. I grew up in a small town and the library was an important part of my life, the way i saw the rest of the world was not by any travel particularly but what book is checked out at the local public library. So, all my life ive been a reader. And still want that book in my hand, so im oldfashioned in wanting the hard copy. And im reading at the moment dish often read biographs, hoyt. Things you might expect somebody who is interested in government, politics, to read. The one at the moment is Douglas Macarthur a buying grief he predates my time and didnt know a lot about him other than he has been somewhat controversial and this is a new book, written by arthur herman, and im learning about Douglas Macarthur, the general and military leader. Im just a few pages probably 50 payments from being done with this become and trying to get it done this week with get on an airplane so i dont have to carry another book ill soon be done with. What else . I read this just this week i was in a meeting in which john meacham, historian, author, was speaking, describing a book and this is next on my list. Franklin and winston thester about to world war leads, Great Britain and the United States and their relationship. Think john meacham is a great author, very right and smart and i love to read what he writes, and this is a brand new book but one i havent read so thats next on my list. But i keep track of what books i read. Not a lot of fiction but things that have to do with the work die here, and particularly things about people in the hoyt of our country, history of the world, that hopefully are inspiring and give you insight
