Bernie Sanders: The solution: The major Wall Street banks must be broken up....

[Zorra]

137. ^^That^^, in a nutshell, is the perfect illustration of why Democratic Centrists have

lost everything that they can possibly lose for Democrats for now. In 2016, they will lose the White House as well.

The party has made it quite clear, to anyone with an IQ over 60, that it has been thoroughly infiltrated and co-opted by Wall St. Owned by Wall St.

Young people are going to see the reality that the political system has become a hopeless cause as far as any possibility of necessary significant change is concerned, and will stay home on election day. Left leaning independents will stay home or vote Third Party. Minorities will stay home in despair.

"Why even give a shit anymore?", they'll all say. "We the people have no one representing our interests at all. We voted a huge majority of Democrats into office in 2008, and they sold us out to the highest bidder. So just fuck it all, why bother?".

Lifetime Democratic liberal/progressives will be dispirited. They will listen to the arguments in the above paragraphs, and say to themselves, "They are right. Democrats are offering them nothing but more control by Wall St., and maybe a few social gains. And we're not going to be willing to sacrifice our integrity by lying to them and telling them they are wrong; we can only hope that the possibility of a few social gains will bring them to the polls. Because they're not wrong, they are 100% correct. No one is really representing their interests."

Conservatives will turn out in raging, rabid, unprecedented hordes and vote republican.

Jeb Bush will be our next president. Republicans will remain in control of both houses.

I really, really, wish I was wrong. But I'm not. If by some miracle this post is not accurately prophetic, I will offer myself up for tarring and feathering.

Third Way corporate centrism has murdered the Democratic party. It's dead.

Democratic Party centrism has achieved its goal.
