Ironically the thing that's getting me more involved in politics is my chinese national wife who loves american politics. She went with me to vote and thought it was the coolest thing ever, and now the idea of going to a party meeting is blowing her loving mind. It's sort of reminding me that "Oh yeah we do live in a democracy (lovely as it is) and I can do more than just lie down and wait to get hosed. That's better than most of the world."

The Democratic email leaks were a window into the madhouse. Bloodless corporate vampires referring to human beings with marketing lingo, framing candidates and policy platforms as "products." It was obvious that the whole foundation had been rotted to its core, but I thought they would still carry this election through sheer institutional inertia. I knew the Left would be proven right but not like this.

back when ships were mostly made of wood there was a practice of taking an old ship, scrapping it except for the salvageable material and parts, then building a brand-new ship with the same name and saying it was the same ship as the old one because it was "reconstructed" I don't know where I'm going with this story but I think the DNC could use a reconstruction of that sort

Do research on local democrats. Guys and girls with views similar to Bernie's you support. Call them up. Volunteer for them. If you got your family who hates politics excited about Bernie, you might have the charisma to make a good volunteer for those people. It might not seem like a big help then, but it really is.

There's lots of salvageable things in the DNC but it needs a real big shakeup.
