 y Patriotism: A Menace of Liberty:

What is patriotism? Is it love of one’s birthplace, the place of childhood’s recollections and hopes, dreams and aspirations? Is it the place where, in childlike naivety, we would watch the fleeting clouds, and wonder why we, too, could not run so swiftly? The place where we would count the milliard glittering stars, terror-stricken lest each one “an eye should be,” piercing the very depths of our little souls? Is it the place where we would listen to the music of the birds, and long to have wings to fly, even as they, to distant lands? Or the place where we would sit at mother’s knee, enraptured by wonderful tales of great deeds and conquests? In short, is it love for the spot, every inch representing dear and precious recollections of a happy, joyous, and playful childhood?

The only thing that makes sense to me is that West, like Ralph Nader, is consciously trying to pressure the Democratic Party to move to the left. This was Nader's conscious motivation when he ran third party. And I don't mind that tactic, but imho it would seem much more effective to work on winning elections with a third party locally, like what Kshama Sawant is doing with Socialist Alternative and Workers Strike Back. The whole point of being a leftist is the recognition that collective struggle is the way we win and build power. I'm really hoping this candidacy is coming from that mindset, because it doesn't look like it from here. The only thing that makes sense to me is that West, like Ralph Nader,
