I think Pete Seeger was a communist (a small "c', not a capital "C") in the best sense of the word.
If anything, it is the hardcore hippies and Democratic politicians who've screwed up Pete's vision of communism. I honestly believe he didn't want to overthrow the government, but see to it that laws were passed where townspeople looked after one-another rather than keeping the ultra-harsh, Darwinistic mode of "survival of the fittest" as the status-quo..
We should all be so very grateful for Pete's ideals, hopes and inspirations. He was way ahead of his times and a great person on top of it. Thanks for sharing this. Mark
Great message: some songs provide escape from your troubles, some provide understanding of your troubles, and some inspire you to want to solve your troubles.

And, just so everyone knows, this is coming from a conservative Republican.
