Our party today is divided between two kinds of equalitarians: some who put more emphasis on racial and gender equality, and others who put more emphasis on economic equality. In the heat of competition, some have suggested that one side or the other is opposed to equality emphasized by the other, but this is not at all true -- we all stand for equality! Divided yes, in a way, but it could be way worse: consider the Republicans, divided between the agents of the Billionaire Class on the one hand and racists and protectionists on the other hand.
So how 'bout we keep on the sunny side?

The other is honest and doesn't take corporate money.

(3,660 posts)I don't think so. I think it's a form of self-delusion similar to what republican voters seem to have in many cases.
Hillary supporters are physically unable to see anything negative about her.

I said, "our party," not "the leaders of our party."

(3,920 posts)while your characterization of the status quo as "corporate socialism" is interesting, I'm bothered by the ambiguity that always comes with "socialism."

The party's candidate will win the nomination, and likely the White House. The party is behind one person--and one person only--and the majority of primary voters, so far, are behind the party's candidate.
There is division between the primary candidates and their supporters, of course, which is expected. But the party will rally around the nominee in November.
