3. The party has lost working people to a racist cult.

We can regain workers with a progressive platform.

You know what happens to that when the fatcats call on the DNC to ( and I read these words today) "tone it down"

The party kills off its best strategies. I voted for Bernie in a primary because I believed that his worker's focus would be the best way to defeat Trump. I am glad I was wrong. That time. But I see future centrist campaigns failing to connect with workers.

People want "revolutionary" ideas. They thought that FartMan was revolutionary. He talked that way but only brought the bloodshed of revolution and welfare for the wealthy. Himself first.

SO BE REVOLUTIONARY!!
A grassroots revolution is needed for the party to win.

Indivisible has done infinitely more for our cause than the slumbering, oligarch-owned party.

Leaders are starting to lead because we the people kicked ass.
