No, it's not going to die...it is the latest incarnation of Occupy, which was the natural child of civil rights and women's rights movements.

The only way it's gonna die is if Hillary "wins" the nomination by non-democratic means. At that point, I'd invest in pitchforks, because the 1% will have pulled out all the stops.

Maybe they're waiting until after the primary, depending on whether he wins (which is quite possible to me). But we absolutely need a "50 state strategy" to elect officials at all levels who are committed to economic democracy, working in concert with community efforts at co-op like business enterprises, anchor institutions, that sort of thing, already underway like those described by Gar Apervowitz.

This is far too much to fall on the shoulders of one person. The mainstream media are not bringing out any experts to talk about progressive economics/democratic socialism--the huge public conversation we need to be having, that is certainly touched upon by Michael Moore (in a non-electoral setting).

Chomsky's right that it's getting tied up in the POTUS circus and that we need a larger more driven and organized conversation and action agenda on this. It's possible that Sanders (and well his campaign is pretty busy) wouldn't want to begin organizing this the way Dean did (who was simply organizing a response to negation of Bush era neoconservatism), because it'd look like he's going outside the Democratic party.

There are former elected officials who could be interviewed on this--progressive senators/reps who were pushed out by DNC types. But of course, radio silence.
