      Look, it's historically terribly common for economically downtrodden & politically unrepresented to turn to race as part of their plight.

      For a long time, the social science puzzle was how the parties manage to hold their base (while betraying them economically) for so long.

      "The Party Decides" (a good book!) is a study of how the elites learned to re-perpetuate their power, after 70s reforms threatened it.

      In any open(ish) system with voting, there will eventually be challenges to elite stronghold on power. But history says: elites adjust too.

      The "invisible primary" rose after the "smoke-filled backrooms" were no longer viable. You bet there will be a response to 2016, too.

          Yes, I'm surprised it's Trump but I've long argued he was viable because something like his stances was the obvious GOP base/elite fracture.

          Also the R primary calendar is front-loaded & greased for the front-runner (assumed to be who "The Party" decided.) But, this year, oops.
