    This are emergency times so Democrats need something new: a leader of the opposition. I argue the case here:https://newrepublic.com/article/139107/democrats-need-pick-leader-now …

        I think Dems need to learn how to fight dirty. We are trying to play facts against feelings, and it isn't working.

        how about someone who credibly stirs feelings like bernie and isn't sold out to big corporate donors

        as a republican can't think of anyone I'd rather see as leader of the Dems than Warren or Sanders. Gives GOP huge margin of error

        If the Rs didn't need a "shadow President" to obstruct Obama, Dems don't need one either. (Also, message discipline is overrated.)

        I think the Democratic Party are as reliable as today's media/journalist... no one cares what they think.

        Yes. As a product of parl democracy I've never understood lack of opposition leader in the US. Needs a shadow cabinet too!

        We've needed a shadow cabinet for years. Would help track each dept easier. Need not be Dem, but general left.
