Yes Harry's mentor Saul Alenski.

I was looking at it on Amazon and was reading some of the evaluation of some readers.
One guy wrote a rather long review. I'm not into cut and pasting the whole article (that's Harry's schtick?) but I will post his closing paragraph-

"What I found quite amazing after reading "Rules for Radicals" is that I feel that I had stumbled upon THE liberal playbook. It is quite easy to look back at the lead-up to the elections of 2006 and 2008 and see Alinsky's handiwork. But, I find myself wondering if the "radicals" now in charge have unwittingly positioned themselves to be victims of their own game ... I guess that answer may come in 2010 and/or 2012."

I think his dates were off a bit, but he was close...



Saul Alinsky devoted his intellect and his life to helping poor people.
Your Jesus would have liked him. I was delighted to spend some time
working with one of Alinsky's organizations and later retaining him as
key speaker at a convention for an organization for which I worked. Oh,
at that convention as it was closing, the professional staff went out on
strike and stayed out for 10 days. Management, of which I was a part,
could not get a settlement. On the 10th day, the union's chief
negotiator asked that I be brought to the table to represent management.
I settled the strike on the 11th day in less than an hour without it
costing the organization a dollar more than it had budgeted for staff.
That was the first time I worked as a labor negotiator. About a decade
later, I was part of a postal labor management committee that negotiated
the largest labor contract in the history of the United States. All this
while you were doing what, growing rutabagas and cleaning battery
terminals?

What a friggin' hero! Was this before or after the Cape Horn roundabouts?
