What a fantastic interview. Gravel is so refreshing. I only hope the main stream media doesn't make a mess of his agenda. They're already attempting to, but he seems to be holding his ground quite well. He's got the experience and the stamina it seems. Thanks for posting this anti. I'm going to redirect from my site. Cheers. ps,I sent my contribution to Gravel last week. I couldn't wait for him to start quoting Chomsky. He's just as inspiring as Chomsky on his own.
Quite a character, Anticant. Thank you. I am afraid, though, the truth is not accepted in politics and I look forward to how intense support from his compatriots will be in the elections. Of course if I could vote in the US I'd do it for him.
anticant is the blogname of a lifelong free speech and civil rights campaigner. A lot of his life since WW2 has been taken up with battling against cruel and over-bossy laws, censorship, censoriousness, and Nanny Knows Best types. Now elderly and in poor health, anticant hopes his memories and thoughts will be of interest to those engaged in today's struggles for freedom, democracy, and a more hopeful tomorrow.

Gravel sounds like Chomsky. as Chomsky sounds like Orwell...and all three remind me of Chomsky's quote :
"EITHER YOU REPEAT THE SAME CONVENTIONAL DOCTRINES EVERYBODY IS SAYING, OR ELSE YOU SAY SOMETHING TRUE, AND IT WILL SOUND LIKE IT'S FROM NEPTUNE"
I understand there is now a radio station called "Neptune" on the strength of that Chomsky quote.
