I think Meyerson over at the Prospect if he really thinks economic issues are where it's at, he should probably stick with them and for get some white racist candidate that was shot over 50 years ago.

The multi ethnic multi racial working class would like a raise, men, women, everyone. Mexico tripled the min wage over 4 years, why can't we do the same? $22.50 as a base rate would do more for our parties prospects than huffing hopium out of a bag like glue.
