Norman
Mattoon
Thomas
(November
20,
1884 –
December
19,
1968)
was a
leading
American
socialist,
pacifist,
and
six-time
presidential
candidate
for
the
Socialist
Party
of
America
.
The
Socialist
Party
candidate
for
President
of the
U.S.,
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.
