Pretty sure agitating for electoral reform isn't going to help much because the the republicans are about to embark on disenfranchising as many democrats as they can.

Kithkar posted:Am I insane or is this actually not a bad choice at all, given everything that's happened? Give Bernie the DNC and let him push the party to the left, but Franken could actually be a good choice for 2020. He's pretty liberal, and isn't seen as a Hillaryman so adopting the Bernie platform wouldn't look disingenuous, he can counter Trump being Trump by being genuinely engaging and funny, and he's from the rust belt and knows their issues intimately. The best part about Bernie for chair is it's frankly something we can actually work towards. Contact the committee members for your state and yell at them about it until the new pick. It's probably a longshot but it'll feel good to be trying to accomplish SOMETHING.

cargo cult posted:pls stop talking about how obama is the "coolest motherfucker alive," while roasting hillary for being a neoliberal corporate warhawk in the same loving sentence, like do you even hear yourself? wtf man. he's certainly slick, and retained his humanity cause he was barely in washington before he got the top job, but please, stop calling him "cool," im sure there are plenty of legless pakistani kids who'd really appreciate it. I think you'll find that would only be silly of them if they were calling him Cool and Good (tm). He is not good, but absolutely is ridiculously loving cool.

Well looking into it, it looks like it's much harder than i thought to find out who the DNC members for your state are. The 100 "Chair and vice-chair for each state party" chunk is much easier, but there's also 200 "apportioned by population, generally either elected or chosen by the state party" and smattering of other people.

Raskolnikov38 posted:i found the list for california on cadems but reading the DNC charter it seems there is no such thing as a interim chair. I guess brazile just uses it to indicate she doesn't want to do it forever but theres probably going to need to be a popular call for bernie before the DNC members actually have a vote Yeah I basically searched for washington because that's where I am and couldn't really find it.

Well I'm going to be the most vulgar annoying democrat ever, but I e-mailed my county's party asking what the gently caress I had to do to get rid of all the olds in the party http://www.wa-democrats.org/about/board has the chair's email at least.

poo poo a balanced budget amendment would be good for Republicans long term cause it'd make it harder for democrats to fund Fixing Things if/when they take back over.

Yeah in fairness it's really more of a Palace Coup than a civil war. We were just... really EXPECTING there to be any resistance whatsoever you know?

Pretty amused about the article acting as if DWS also being a representative was what caused criticism of her tenure as chair.

"starve the beast" and "drain the swamp" have had good returns, in the "x the y" pattern i think it might be time for "eat the rich" to go mainstream.

So since we're basically stuck with gerrymandering and voter suppression I was considering what blue states can do to make themselves more blue (which should help in the house a little bit.) People talk about making election day a national holiday but why not just have blue states make it a paid holiday for a cheesy boost to blue-voting demographics.
