maybe; a snowballs chance in hell of winning , or even getting press.
But he has a lot to say that noone else is touching.

He is most definitely an extreme nutcase, and that's part of the problem.
He does have a lot to say, and he'll make sense for a few pages and then
something totally loonie will come out of his mouth. The problem is that
this now marginalizes most of the good points that he has.


I haven't run accross this yet, but I'm new to the Larouche movement..
Seems like he has a lot of international "Larouchies" working for him.

I did see some nasty things the Anti-Defamation League has written about
him, but looking at their website they seem to be extremist nustcases too;
so who to believe.


Admittedly you can say the same thing about some mainstream politicians
on both sides of the aisle too.

His advocacy of nuclear fusion research has almost singlehandedly resulted
in fusion research now getting categorized as a loonie idea among the
political set due to his association with it. This is bad, because
nuclear
fusion technology may well have a real future.

Ontario Power Generation had an experimental/ research fusion reactor
that is supposed to be online at Darlington plant sometime soon . I think
there is some web information on it somewhere. Since OPG got bought by some
British consortium in the Privatisation craze a few years ago .. it would
seem strange that they would be doing any R&D into something that will have
no payoff.


I haven't heard the Larouche Fusion talk yet.. I'll go have a look for it
on the site.


I wonder if $87 Billion in R&D for Fusion would have got us somewhere.
