Letter to the Editor: Clarification

To the Editor:
Your “Editor Emeritus,” Dick Schilling, made a serious error in his effort to smear Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders by writing, “Sanders calls himself a democratic socialist, which is what the Nazi party in Germany called itself.”
In fact, the Nazis called themselves the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP), the National Socialist German Workers Party or National Socialists in English, known as Nazis world-wide.
