(62,325 posts)they are better than War Criminals or Wall St. criminals. That's not much of a reason to vote for anyone.
I want a Second Party. You have to have a Second Party before you can have a Third Party.
I will be supporting anyone who looks like they are NOT a corporate candidate working for their donors. Iow, in every primary I will support progressives who oppose current corporate puppets, The goal from now on is to clean Congress out, regardless of the letter someone has behind their name, how they VOTE on issues like SS and War and Monsanto etc. will determine how hard we work to be rid of them.
The people have to take matters into their own hands. No more supporting DC insiders, Third Way (now there is a real Third Party which attached itself to the Democratic Party and turned it into another Corporate Part) chosen candidates.
The people must now choose the candidates so no more donations to the party, all donations go directly to candidates. The party doesn't need our donations, they don't US is what I am hearing, so we are on our own, we know the deal now, and in a way it is exciting. A whole new beginning, the end of a bad relationship, the beginning of a new Democratic Party built by the people once again.
