Rabbi Michael Lerner, Truthout: Obama and his cheerleaders are as likely to be obstacles as they are allies in taking the steps needed for us to move towards The Caring Society.
H. Patricia Hynes, Truthout: In our Listening to Soldiers and Vets Series, voices of soldiers and veterans of WWI eerily echo plaints of futility and folly we hear from today's protesters.
Neil Tangri and Global Alliance for Incinerator Alternatives, Other Worlds: Over the last 20 years, waste pickers in India - workers in the informal economy who recover recyclable materials from trash - have transformed both their city's municipal waste management system and their own lives.
Paul Jay, The Real News: A group of Democrats called "The Third Way" are working with President Obama towards the "grand betrayal" on social security.
Amy Goodman, Democracy Now!: As the most expensive presidential election in U.S. history comes to an end, broadcaster Tavis Smiley and professor, activist Dr. Cornel West join us to discuss President Obama's re-election and their hopes for a national political agenda in and outside of the White House during Obama's second term.

Yves Smith, Naked Capitalism: The Obama victory was less than 24 hours old when the Rubinite faction of the Democratic party was out full bore selling "reforming" Social Security, giving it higher priority than any other measure on the table while simultaneously admitting that this is not even a pressing (let alone real) problem.
Mike Elk, Jacobin Magazine: The labor movement as a whole spent an estimated $400 million electing Democrats this year, demonstrating how costly they believe a Republican takeover could have been.
Staff, Making Contact: Between 1956 and 1971, the FBI conducted more than 2,000 COINTELPRO (Counter Intelligence Program) operations. This week we broadcast the second half of the documentary film "COINTELPRO 101," produced by The Freedom Archives.
