Back in the days when I was a radical hippie freak, I attended a couple of meetings of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), a group already nationally notorious for its violent protests against the Vietnam War at the 1968 Democratic National Convention. But even at the University of Michigan, where it had gotten its start, the SDS was still considered very much on the fringe. Not just against the war, in other words, but standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Mao, Fidel and Uncle Ho.
