(3,111 posts)system reeks, and the Party has been dismal.
As a side note, I really did enjoy Hillary's speech tonight. It is hoping against hope to think that what she says is for real, and I'm in it for Bernie all the way through California (where he does have a chance to do significantly well).
it is hard for a Progressive to find representation these days, particularly if they care about economic issues. I don't know why this is the case, but it just is. A lot of it is in coalition building, but this time the social issues and other optics drew a lot of people to Hillary that I would have thought would go the other way.
Listening to Hillary tonight, I am reminded of some of what makes her formidable and could make her great. I would recommend a listen. If supporters from both sides could get what she has to say tonight enacted, I would think we'd both be satisfied.
All best.
