Three theories of how we get to an independent mass workers party in the US: 1) Dem realignment: expel capitalist elements or bring them to heel. 2) Clean break: don't touch Dems, start our own party now. 3) Dirty break: run on Dem ballot line as we build constituency for a break

I think if Bernie'd had his shit together in 2016 he could've done it. Hillary and the Dems were not prepared at all, and could have easily lost to Bernie. By 2020 it was too late (plus all the other shit happened)
