17. And you're so disorganized
you can't do anything about it. The Dems lack divisible organization. The party is too hierarchical... it needs to be a conglomerate of state parties to which the DNC answers. As it is, the state parties answer to the DNC and it's become a disaster. Donations should be given to the state parties only, and the DNC should have to solicit these. Direct donating to the national party = loss of municipal power. For that matter, don't donate to your state party -- donate to your COUNTY party and leave it to them to funnel the money upward. Of course I'm not saying you can't or shouldn't donate to individual candidates, but donating to the "super" parties themselves is disaster.
