Regarding the Democratic Party:
It’s not that it’s catered to centrists. Dem Party rules are made to keep incumbents in and challengers out.

It took decades for neoliberals to oust FDR and Jimmy Carter Democrats.

We can #DemTakeover.
We must.

Progressives and Dem Socs #DemEntered and conquered in CA, CO and WA.
We have to organize inside and outside of electoral politics.
Without the other, either will fail.

We need to take power at different levels, from local to national.
We’re up to it.

The Left needs to be better at multi-layer organizing and consensus forming.
In the old days, the right excelled at organizing.

And sadly, we’ll need wealthy supporters to beat the residual power of the corporate media establishment in a TIMELY manner.

I’m #NeverBiden & anti-establishment as we come.
But think:
A) all the laws states have to screw over third parties, and
B) how satisfying it will feel to conquer Obama and Clinton’s corrupt, right-wing neolib austerity party and make it a labor party.
