Bernie Sanders did better with working class democrats than he did with the ultra liberal ones, is the surprising part. I guess that economic message really does resonate

Hillary Clinton's campaign is about a person, Bernie Sanders' campaign is about an idea You can kill a person but you can't kill an idea

mr whistler posted:On the other hand, those of us who lived through the complete, unrepentant obstructionism of both modern Democratic presidencies by reactionary, dickbag Republicans want to see plans of how you actually enact these ideas. Bill Clinton dismantled the welfare state, enacted incredibly harsh and short sighted 3 strikes laws, signed legislation removing restrictions on banks, and free trade agreements that moved thousands of jobs out of this country. He agreed with Reagan that the government was the problem and that private, market based solutions were appropriate for basically every problem, and I've only touched on the economic right wing policy of his administration. If that's fighting against an obstructionist Congress, I shudder to imagine what he would have done with a more pliable legislative branch.

America is dumb and for years equivocated liberalism with all leftist ideologies, so what are you gonna call yourself when you're more left than a liberal?

Something like 27% of the electorate identified as liberal in 2000, that number had moved to 42% by 2015 It turns out that financial crises are a good way to move people to the left in a way that the slow strangle of the previous 30 years didn't

Cointelpro deprived the left (especially African Americans) of an entire generation of politicians and is one of the reasons why we're having so much trouble getting out of the mire of social and economic conservatism
