I was one of the first to use the term commi-nazi for anyone on the far left or right. That wasn't popular at Columbia University in the 60s. When I was in high school I wrote a paper on the Yalta conference that I used in a debating society discussion. My position then was that Roosevelt was too ill to realize what he had done. Today I'm more focused on the possible consequences of a more aggressive FP in 1946. No I've never been an admirer of dictators of any sort. J. Edgar Hoover, McCarthy, Viet Nam, Chile, Iraq all proactive. Communism was never a political force with any real influence in the 30´s in the US. Soon after communism fell the US went after a small band of criminals(al Qaeda) and made them into a huge diffuse terrorist organization. It's as if the leaders of the US don't believe in the essence of the US. Or they've never read the D. of I., Thomas Paine, or Jefferson.
