But Will The Democrats Join?

The Henry "Scoop" Jackson society has been formed . . . . . in Great Britain! Would any of the current crop (or, if you prefer, "infestation") of Democrat Party luminaries have any interest in the thoughts of a group that believes Scoop Jackson had it essentially right. Find a background story here. A manifesto is published under the following title:

The British Moment: The Case for Democratic Geopolitics in the Twenty-first Century - A Manifesto of The Henry Jackson Society
The Social Affairs Unit (SAU), London, 2006, £13.99
ISBN 1 904863 15 9

OK, Senator Joe Lieberman knows who Scoop Jackson was. But then, he isn't a real Democrat anyway.
