About Me
- Neil Clark
- I am a journalist, writer & broadcaster, based in the U.K. I am the author of 'Stranger than Fiction', a biography of Edgar Wallace, available here http://goo.gl/o2cZze , 'Champion Jump Horse Racing Jockeys 1945 to Present Day' and 'Flying Ace'. I have been a regular contributor to newspapers and magazines in UK & overseas including The Daily and Sunday Express, The Guardian, The Week, Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday, The Spectator. My work has appeared in publications as diverse as The American Conservative, Woman's Weekly, and the Racing Post. I am strongly opposed to the neo-con war agenda -and believe in the urgent necessity of a left-right anti-war coalition. On domestic issues I support re-nationalisation of the railways and public utilities (I co-founded of The Campaign for Public Ownership), free care for the elderly, a free NHS including the restoration of NHS dentistry, and protection of the Green Belt and the countryside. I am anti-lockdown. FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @NEILCLARK66 and @MightyMagyar

Oh boy! That speech bubble is pure magic!
It's not a happy day for Republicans like me. McCain is absolutely unacceptable, but the party is telling us we will nominate him and like it, even though it will result in certain defeat in November.
We're only peely-wolly at best for Romney, the most serious candidate remaining.
What is truly galling is that Obama is out-Reaganing the entire Republican party with his utterly upbeat vibe, and the hint of a scintilla of a possibility that he might actually mean it.
Hi Douglas,
The best Republican candidate in my opinion was Ron Paul. I don't agree with a lot of his policies on the economy, but he's dead right on foreign policy. But of course, the neocon smear machine did their utmost to sabotage his campaign and to portray his as an extremist, while John 'Bomb. Bomb, Iran' McCain, is portrayed as a 'centrist' and a 'moderate' !

What, by ignoring it?
It's the Democrats turn to win anyway.
The ilusion of democracy is shattered if you don't change the public name of the ruling elite every now and then.
Many Republicans with libertarian tendencies have flirted with fleeting thoughts of supporting Ron Paul, but Paul has been unwilling to repudiate his neo-Nazi supporters, and it doesn't help that his supporters who aren't neo-Nazis are internet poll spammers.
And yet, with all that, Ron Paul picked up 15% of the Republican caucus vote in my home state of Minnesota.
