Populist Reform of the Democratic Party
Showing Original Post only (View all)We're gonna need a BIGGER bus! [View all]
With all this chatter about
"throwing people under the bus"
We are going to need
a much BIGGER BUS!
Enough is enough, and the
general public gets it.
There is a populist revolution
coming and many establishment
figures will be left behind.
The DLC/3rd-Way will stop
at nothing to derail our movement.
We have already witnessed:
Luis Gutierrez smear Bernie Sanders on Immigration
I dont know if he likes immigrants

Claire Mccaskill smear Bernie Sanders as a "Socialist"
I think that the media is giving Bernie a pass right now, McCaskill said in an interview on MSNBCs Morning Joe. I very rarely read in any coverage of Bernie that hes a socialist. I think everybody wants a fight and I think they are not really giving the same scrutiny to Bernie Sanders that theyre giving to, certainly, Hillary Clinton and the other candidates.

Barnie Frank dismisses Elizabeth Warren
with his straw man argument.
Former Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) says Sen. Elizabeth Warren is wrong for seeking to reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act, a Great Depression-era law that divided commercial and investment banking, as a means to break up the biggest banks.
Frank co-authored the 2010 Dodd-Frank Wall Street reform law and now sits on the board of directors at Signature Bank

So you're not going to address my comment about Bill Clinton at the NAACP Annual Convention?

No, your primary point was that Barney Frank spoke at a "third way" event so obviously....

So someone who is no longer in Congress should roll up in a ball and hide in the corner?
