This is what the crowd looked like the time I spend May Day guarding the gate at Camp Darby in Italy 1982.*
















* not the M&M silly, the angry mob below.

I'd love to show you how a mayday parade looks like, but I was too drunk to take photos

Given the historical and political context of "Forward", little shocked the man who has been hounded for years of being a radical socialist etc would allow such a term to be used.Surely, he and his staff are aware of it.Sure I will be accused of being a conspiracy nut here but believe he is well aware of it, as most committed followers are, I believe it is a bit of a shout out to his base.Whether this is a subtle shout out or not, depends on one's knowledge of what FORWARD means to said followers. Really is a sad country when we have a President openly use such a slogan in his campaign
