W's George Bush Snr. -- Viva La Revolution!

There's no misunderestimating James Cromwell. A longtime left-wing activist, his sweet spot is putting his own spin on historically significant figures -- Lyndon Johnson (RFK), S&L crook Charles Keating (The People vs. Larry Flynt), William Randolph Hearst (RKO 281), Prince Philip (The Queen), and now George Bush Snr. in Oliver Stone's new political biopic W.

In this candid interview, he discusses the role and the current sorry state of our democracy.

Below is one of the many highlights; Cromwell is clearly a force to be reckoned with.

Question: Does the presumptive Obama victory in a few weeks give you any hope?

James Cromwell: I have hope. The conditions are so bad from this administration that, much like the country that Roosevelt inherited, I hope that Obama is a big enough man to respond to the needs of ordinary American people, and that ordinary Americans learn that it is not our leaders who lead us. All substantive change in this country has come from the people, not the leaders. The leaders don't lead -- they follow.

Now, the question is will we abdicate the way we've abdicated for the last eight years and probably the last forty years? Will we abdicate to the money forces, the Wall Street forces, the multinationals and the military-industrial complex? Or will we finally say, "This is it!? This is our country. We are taking it back. We believe in habeas corpus. We hold these truths to be self-evident. That all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights. Among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to maintain these rights, governments are instituted among men, who derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. That when these powers threaten these rights it is the duty and it is the obligation of the people to throw off this government."

I believe that. That's what this country is founded on and that is what we have to rediscover. Barack Obama? As the Black Panthers used to say, you're either part of the solution or you're part of the problem. He has the choice. If he wants to be part of the solution, he has to listen to more rational voices. He has to listen to more progressive voices. He has to listen to his heart. He has to listen to his wife. He has to listen to his children and all of our children and do the right thing. That's the key, he has to do the right thing.
