(26,257 posts)69. Personally, I don't want to see a democratic 'leader' (or most of them, not all). I am greatly disappointed, and I
expected more out of the Biden administration (and to be fair, there was a lot), but still. I'm vastly disappointed.
Maybe it's time for a whole new revamp of those at the top of the Democratic leadership. Get rid of the old, and bring in the new. Bring in new blood, bring in new people, from top to bottom.
Another thing...I don't want someone that is rather old. Not pointing fingers, but I want the newer generation to step up. It's time, especially now, when we got everything handed to us in the last election, not in a good way.

Agree 100%. However, we should have been dealing with the right-wing propaganda media takeover decades ago.

This will never happen. We don't know how to fight anymore. Too many corporate interests infesting the party.
