We've all heard Kerry spout this quote. Too few are aware of its origin.
I don't think the source is any accident.

The sun has fallen down
And the billboards are all leering
And the flags are all dead at the top of their poles.

Here's another little ditty from Langston Hughes (author of that quote):
From "Goodbye Christ" (1932) -- Langston Hughes
Goodbye, Christ Jesus Lord God Jehovah,
Beat it on away from here now.
Make way for a new guy with no religion at all —
A real guy named
Marx Communist Lenin Peasant Stalin Worker ME."
Well at least Kerry/Edwards are being honest.

Maybe they'd change their minds of Marxism if they read my hamburger in NK post....

Kerry is well versed in Communism, considering his father was one. (Admittedly)
"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries." - Winston Churchill

Here's the whole poem in full.
It is essentially a pro-Communist, anti-capitalist poem.
