About Vito Marcantonio.
Who was Vito Marc?
Core of the American Labor Party and a progressive New York City congressman.
After the Republican Party was won over by the Goldwaterites, New York City nominated the most liberal Republican you could possibly find, John Lindsay, to be its mayor, and he was elected.
You know, we have a practice here to wrap up these discussions after we've been hearing about the horrors that lie in store for us in our politics or in foreign wars sometimes, to just close on a note of joy, of some joy you've experienced recently that you'd like to share with us.
Molly, why don't you kick things off?
And for me, I just have to confess that once again, as it happens every four years, even though I think I don't care, I have been totally sucked into the World Cup and have enjoyed it tremendously.
Who are you cheering for in the final?

I started out being a good USA fan, and then the Francophile in me came out.
But...
It's great stuff.

It's quite a combination.
I guess I hope Messi does well and wins it for Argentina.
But I don't have a strong preference to you.
On that note, Brett and Molly, thank you both very much for a wonderful conversation.
I'm Robert Siegel, and we're hearing the news now from multiple outlets citing many sources that Michael Jackson has died.
The singer was found at his home today where he reportedly was not breathing.
