I was in college during George W Bush's first term so I guess my concept of the left was frozen in that time.

Then during the general election I was shocked when people were cheerlead globalization, neoliberalism, and 'Red Scares'.

I remember during the early 2000s ID politics were important, but the focus was on economic justice.

I'm not sure what happened on the left in the past 14 years but here we are.

things are going to feel even worse when the democrats replace the trump administration and say "most of this is okay"

Get involved in the current system, figure out who wields the power and more importantly why. Then when the goals of the city or the county don't get done (probably because of funding) figure out who was blocking it. Replace that person with someone who aligns with your goals and then pay yourself on the back for achieving some small progress.

Take what you learned and attempt to expand those same goals with the allies who helped you. If one suddenly decides that something can't be done because of "job creators" or whatever, immediately purge her if she has any appearance of impropriety, and that is your new goal.

That really doesn't answer the question of how.

True. Ok step 1. Go to local meetings and listen. Do that for a month or two and then you can figure out where to go from there.

You may be being facetious, but joining the majority local party and trying to steer them in a more progressive direction isn't a waste imo. Hell they might agree with you on more then you realize!

The only thing required to be a "leader" is having a goal that people believe in.

gerrymandering + low voter turnout on off years means the dems are basically guarantee not to have the house unless Trump literally nukes Iowa or something

Democratic voters do not go into hibernation during every mid term. There is nothing inherent to them that means that low turnout is a foregone conclusion. It's just a matter of motivating turnout - and sending a gently caress you to Cheeto Hitler is a hell of a motivator.

But seriously the issue was she lied about it, when she had no reason to. Her friend made a bunch of trades on her behalf and then Hillary when questioned about them, lied.

Why would she do that unless she was covering something up? And the rest, as they say, is herstory.

The thing that worries me about Tulsi is that I think if she's being considered for anything she's being considered for foreign policy stuff.

It'd be like putting Bernie Sanders in charge of gun policy. It's basically a way to look like they're being bipartisan without actually compromising on anything.

It was supposed to be a joke about how opaque getting involved with local party apparatus can be but, that idea is hilarious and I'm going to try that now.

her entire thing before jumping onto Bernie was being the Democrat Fox and all could call to huff about how Obama needs to man up and bomb more people and call it Radical Islam and stop having talks with Muslim community leaders and focus on fighting the war and poo poo.

As soon as she got with Sanders it became 'oh yea the war is totally bad, how dare he'.
