I just stumbled upon the following talk by Cornel West on Google Video. Because West is such a gifted speaker,I was thrilled to find his talk on-line. One of the more poignant things he says is that "without non-market values--love, trust, fidelity, justice--no democracy can survive." Given that so many politicians these days are entirely blind to the importance of non-market values (think Iraq and Katrina), we are in dire need of West's vision and hope.
