Socialism in the United States

There aren't these long running democratic strains in those countries and so whatever movement takes over beat on the right or the left they tend toward these sort of cultural and historical momentum that's already built up. So I mean for many reasons including that building let's say socialism in a country like the US for all of its anti-democratic and profoundly anti-democratic structures and flaws at least has this ideological or rhetorical idea of a commitment to democracy and democratic structures thus any socialist construction here would be fundamentally different.
