Proposition: the leadership of the Democratic Party is happy the way things are

I think we could be all right with standing on progressive values Obama did just fine with a simple mantra of "Hope and Change". Look at that response from progressive America.

As far as taking back our party, we must work from within and attack. If we went with the Greens, how long before the repubs will start infiltrating our party and we will have the same problem we have now only years later. We have to cut out this cancer now.We have to set-up a Progressive Democratic party within our party and force change from both the bottom up and top down. We must have independent finances with a trusted coop group, maybe even our own coop bank. We must ask for grassroots donations, corporate fundraisers while mirroring all the dem and repub models of financing. We must utilize the power of boycotts if progressive corps give us the cold shoulder Maybe even our own bank could start loaning out to coops so we can be our own job creators. Just some beginning thoughts.
