10 different highly organized, highly energized movements are going on in America right now. Democrats are hardly involved AT ALL.
As long as the Democratic Party aims to move forward WITHOUT supporting most grassroots movements & without young people, THEY LOSE.

Geography is a big factor. In North Carolina, progressive grassroots movements & Democrats are frequently intertwined.

apparently the DNC has SOMETHING you want otherwise why not take all these grassroots movements and make a party out of them?

Probably because we have a two party system. Americans are fearful and stupid and will never consider a 3rd party.

Shouldn’t matter if Bernie/youth/grassroots is as powerful as the Bernie folks claim.
-
but it does. The optics alone would ruin his reputation. The Dem Party is becoming a third rail for progressives.
-
and Bernie’s policies would damage the DNC among moderates. Difference is Bernie’s never won a national campaign.

Independents make up 43% of the electorate. Dems would jump on board the Bernie train when faced with a Repub. opponent.

Dems should do what Bernie supporters wouldn’t? 80k votes in 3 states. You guys got Trump elected and now you want the party too?
