Il est prêt à donner une dernière chance au fédéralisme. C'est l'épisode du " beau risque " qui cristallise la scission à l'intérieur du parti. En janvier 1985, c'est le burnout et la détresse psychologique. À soixante ans, il paraît fini. Dans une ambiance de conspiration et de révolution de palais, il s'accroche jusqu'au jour où il jette l'éponge avant que le parti qu'il a mis au monde ne lui indique plus brutalement encore la sortie. 2005.Biography of A.M.

Par Robert Aird, Yves Trottier. 2014
" Dans ce petit ouvrage décapant, les auteurs parodient les dialogues socratiques pour plonger dans les débats qui ont marqué…
la vie politique des dernières années. Pour ce faire, ils transportent sur l'agora d'Athènes des discours que le lecteur avisé saura attribuer sans difficulté à nos rhéteurs contemporains. On retrouve ainsi un Socrate malicieux, mais toujours soucieux du bien public en pleine conversation avec Ministrempos, Alargentos, Xenophobite ou Ploutocratos à propos de la grève étudiante, des gaz de schistes, de la laïcité ou de la collusion dans les travaux publics. Qu'en dis-tu Socrate? est le livre de deux amoureux de la politique et de la philosophie dont l'humour jubilatoire ne les empêche pas de poser certaines des questions les plus importantes de l'heure.
