Patti Solis Doyle

Support Hillary's Mexican-American Woman Campaign Chief

I've heard some anti-immigrant sentiment recently but I'm not feeling it. I'm proud that Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, Patti Solis Doyle, is Mexican-American, second-generation. Diversity works for the Democratic Party.

Today, I received the following e-mail from Patti Solis Doyle:

Date: Sat, 31 Mar 2007 09:35:02 -0400 (EDT)

From: "Patti Solis Doyle, Hillary for President"

To: francislholland@yahoo.com

Subject: RE: I never could have anticipated

Dear Francis,

I just got off the phone after giving Hillary an update on our online fundraising before tonight's FEC deadline. We're both blown away by the incredible response to the message she sent yesterday.

Now there are just a few hours left. At midnight tonight, we have to close the books on the first quarter. When all the campaigns' fundraising reports come out, they will set the tone of the race for months to come. As Hillary's campaign manager, I'm telling you right now, every dollar we bring in before midnight will make a difference.

Words to live by

Let's begin with capitalism, a word that has gone largely out of fashion. The approved reference now is to the market system. This shift minimizes --indeed, deletes-- the role of wealth in the economic and social system. And it sheds the adverse connotation going back to Marx. Instead of the owners of capital or their attendants in control, we have the admirably impersonal role of market forces. It would be hard to think of a change in terminology more in the interest of those to whom money accords power. They have now a functional anonymity.

But most of the people who use the new designation --economists, in particular-- are innocent as to the effect. They see nothing wrong with their bland, descriptive terminology. They pay no attention to the important question: Whether money "wealth" accords a special power. (It does.) Thus the term innocent fraud.
