TODAY COULD BE A turning point in American history. Today the American people have the opportunity of destroying representative government. They can succeed by not voting, or, as SDS advocates, voting with their feet. Revolutionaries may mark this day as the beginning of the end. for their tactics of divide and conquer may come to fruition. They are not stupid: they understand that the American system will not be toppled as easily as Columbia; they fully realize that the putsch is not even worthy of consideration. Their program is more subtle and more likely of ultimate success: polarize society; push the right and the left to extreme positions; errt harass the moderates and the liberals: force them to seek refuge in the radical movements. In other words, they would totally divide society so that no effective coalition could organize viably governing institutions. They would let the syst em crumble of its own imbalance. Ludicrous? Then why was such a conscious effort made to heckle political candidates? Surely the New Left and the revolutionary groups are aware that such actions only cause a counterreaction on the right. Why the burst of energy in the election year to seek confrontations with any and all symbols of authority? Why the campaigns of condemnation for liberals and moderates, when all reason would point to unity as the proper tactic? In Germany, the Communist Party supported Hitler’s Nazis before and even after their rise to power: they would do anything to hurt the moderate German political elements. They succeeded. And the same tactics may be employed with equal success in our country. If you don’t want to change this nation, if you don’t want to reform it, but you do want to destroy - then don’t vote. If you are diseased with the revolutionary fervor - vote with your feet. If you don’t want the nation to cure itself of its 01s, then seek instead the chaos of its destruction. Today could be a turning point in American history. That decision is ours. We can forget about voting and let a petty demagogue dictate his terms to the House of Representatives, or we can exercise our rights - and our responsibilities.
