Reply to "Cheddi Jagan has become an afterthought"

Totaram: Is that your real name?

Who said these words?

Jagan's socialism was based on solid political analysis. Yes, as a product of the working class he was motivated to help that group but his socialism is a result of political calculus. Hence his assertion that the role of government in a democratic society is to protect the weak and poor because the rich and powerful need no help. That reality has not changed and represents the sentiments of the majority throughout the world. It is a recipe for political success and those who ignore it are doomed to defeat.
