    Default Little known

    Norman Mattoon Thomas

    He was a leading American socialist, pacifist, and six-time presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America.

    Norman Thomas said this in a 1944 speech:
    "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism.
    But, under the name of "liberalism," they will adopt every
    fragment of the socialist program, until one day America
    will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it
    happened." He went on to say: "I no longer need to run as a
    Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The
    Democratic Party has adopted our platform."
