A True Left-Winger

In the current political season, does it seem like the terms “liberal,”  “left-wing,” and “socialist” have been getting a lot of exercise?

Has it left you wondering if those making such allegations know what a true “Leftist” is?

We ask a long time, unabashed, Virginia left-winger to give us his take.
