there has been socialist candidates in the past, eugene debs, norman thomas, but they were never in the mainstream. but now in fact, and temperament of us that socialism had collapse of in its 20th century, suddenly in the 21st century its back and back with a vengeance. i'm not surprised there's a lot of books that try to take stock of this. there's a unifying theme to these books and by large it is an appeal to his super it's idea that socialism has never worked before concerning enough alike of being tried. it was tried in really the majority of the world, the largest country in the world, russia, china, india all swung in the social direction. the issue isn't the socialism didn't work before so it's not going to work now. the verdict of history argument. the problem with that argument is the socialist left -- young people don't know the history so doesn't really get them. the second part of it is even those who do say listen, we are trying a new of socialism, number one. it's not authoritarianism socialism. it's democratic socialism. number two, our model is not lenin or mao. it is

darrow, one of the most famous lawyers in america, a radical who defended various figures like eugene debs on the socialist party and others on the left, and with brian who as you know went in for president three different times of the democratic party. and was still seen as a progressive democrat and hero to many rural, small town protestant americans. brian stated the stakes of the trial this way. he said at the end of the trial, which took eight days, he had a little case and little consequence of the case, but the world is interested because it raises an issue and that day -- issue will someday be settled right, whether it is settled on our side or the other side. and here was the issue. it wasn't just whether one could reconcile the bible with darwin. it also raised the question of democracy, whether a teacher in a public school was free to teach the truth as he saw it or she saw it, or whether, quote, "the people have the right to control the educational system which they created and which they taxed themselves to support," which was brian's understanding of it. he said if you want t
