I love the "take it elsewhere" response Nope. We're keeping it right here. This is the Democrats' thread, and it's open-season on the party leadership. Things are moving toward the Sanders' wing of the party right now. We're here to stay.

He'll only be seen as a failure on here and the rhizzone (I repeat myself) That's going to be true but mainly as function of who writes history books and not due to any relation to reality

You are a moron and what I'm trying to say to you is that this is already more or less the thread you desire, although it has its ups and downs and plenty of debate (as it should). It is not, however, Bernie thread 2.0 because containment threads as a concept are dead and buried. You should have read the thread before you burst in and acted like an idiot

Huey Long was the left's Donald Trump. If that sounds too weird to be true, then do yourself a favor and read T. Harry Williams' biography of Long and then report back here to shitpost about him with me.

mind u Long makes Trump look like a piker when it comes to flagrant cronyism e. also my favorite Long anecdote was when some guy got attacked by one of his brothers and then went to complain to Huey, who made a pensive face and said "Was it Earl? Yeah, Earl bites." paranoid randroid has issued a correction as of 08:13 on Dec 14, 2016 |

Probably did more for the poor in his state than any single governor in history. We aren't nearly lucky enough to have had a man like Huey in the Whitehouse.

Concerned Citizen posted:the revolution begins here, in the democrats thread on somethingawful.com It seems silly, but if a bunch of people dip their feet in the water, maybe a handful of them will actually be worth a drat and make a difference at a local level. The other plus is that the knowledge that everyone brings back will improve the level of discourse. More people will actually have firsthand knowledge of how the system works.
