Robert Reich also has the benefit of being in the Obama Admin, so most liberals don't have a reason to outright dismiss him. Obviously he is still either quite naïve, or he is hiding his power level very well, since he keeps talking about union-membership as the end-all-be-all of fighting capitalism, but hey, it's a start.
