A must read from Daily Kos


This right here. Says it all.

From Geenius at Wrok at Daily Kos ...

So this is what it boils down to: In order to reach our end goal -- in order to win -- we have to have a party that is committed, across the board, to a progressive vision, that articulates that vision constantly and consistently, and that supports progressive candidates for every office at every level.

because, no matter how committed the grass-roots is, somebody in charge will screw us all over. It's their way.

The party big shots are far closer to trump and Clinton than they are to Sanders, ideologically. Their motivation is to stay rich and keep getting invited to the dc events. They give not a shit about voters.

priorities seem to be skewed with conservative Dems, yet their supporters never ask questions.
You know, kind of like Republicans.

That's why we're getting nowhere. Both teams have one owner and everyone else are zombies. Any one who questions authority will soon become rare and all we can do is watch this happen.

Greed, the root of ALL evil.

Goldman Sachs, an epic dreadlord.
