New Left leaders still miss the 1960s in America. Most impressive: In order to prevent the formation of a "tyranny of the majority" type of democracy, James Madison believed that there should be a preference for placing power in the hands of the rich. Therefore, the American constitutional system was originally designed to prevent the expansion of democratic power. Chomsky does not agree with the "anti-American" title given to him by others.

Noam Chomsky: Like my close friend for many years, Howard Zinn, put it in his words that "What matters is the countless small deeds of unknown people who lay the basis for the significant events that enter into history." They're the ones who have done things in the past and they're the ones who have to do it in the future.
