    At the heart of what is wrong with the Democratic party. These are the people representing you. Fearless leader.

    The democratic party as it exists today is probably dead. The current corporate democrats, who have more in common with republicans than democrats on economic issues, have some soul searching to do. The Hilary Clinton and Barrack Obama of the world are done representing us.

    For those that think that the democratic party can be unified the way the republican party was, think twice. All you have to do is bribe republicans and throw money at them. The justice democrats and progressive democrats are far more complex, looking for justice on multiple dimensions: economic, racial, environmental, gender...

    One huge difference between the old democrats and the Bernie democrats: We don't believe Trump is the disease. Trump is just a symptom of a far deeper problem. Corporate democrats look outward. Bernie democrats look inward.

    Dems Beware: Sanders 'Movement' Turns to Midterms

    With Democrats facing tough prospects in the midterm elections, will they also have to worry about primary challenges from their left flank?

    During his presidential campaign, Sen. Bernie Sanders never quite decided whether his "political revolution" could coexist with the Democratic Party or needed to overthrow it. Now, Sanders is one of the most popular political figures in the country and the activists he galvanized have gone on to start new groups, join old ones, or run electoral campaigns.

    The path of Sanders' former staffers reflects the split in his movement, and the some are already galvanizing for the 2018 elections — and setting their sights on their own.

    Rep. Keith Ellison, one of Sanders' most prominent allies, preached unity during his bid for the chairmanship of the Democratic National Committee and is now the party's deputy chairman.

    But the more radical strain, which led hundreds of Sanders delegates to walk out of the Democratic National Convention in protest last summer, is still present on the left and emboldened by the loss of Hillary Clinton and their belief that "Bernie would have won."

    Some are betting that the disaffected left is as or more interested in remaking the Democratic Party as it is in fighting President Donald Trump...

    People think Trump is the Kraken. Not even close. Not even in the same galaxy. America keeps going on the Neoliberal Capitalism path, and I will show you the real Kraken in 2028.

  7. You just arrived to this site what, 9 days ago? What profile did you have before this one? I can appreciate the fact that your are pissed off at mainstream democrats but socialism does not work. Bernie gave Hillary a free pass and he paid the price.

    Who are you trying to win over on a financial trading site? Maybe you need to think about a better place to spew your bullshit.

    AND btw....You think TYT is a serious network? LMFAO! The Armenian Genocide Deniers known as TYT. Have some honor like Futurecurrents and keep one screen name.

    Damn you are 66 years old Vee? You gotta enjoy your retirement years, not argue with a bunch of Republicans on a trading site. Go have a nice big glass of prune juice and sit this one out buddy. I am just trying to help you out man.
