The "liberal elite"

[BainsBane]

77. So now you've defined elite as being elected to a position in the party

rather than wealth. Members of the public can influence the party if they are willing to join, attend meetings, and get elected to positions that run from the local precinct level up to DNC chair. Then you concede that you yourself are involved in the party. Yet somehow you exempt yourself from being part of the elite.

What are you determined to change? To ensure that the "elites" like the ladies in the top picture are ousted from their positions in the party? Do you oppose the door knocking and voter turn out that local party units do? It must be terrible to suffer through the presence of all those "elites"--social workers, teachers, union members, single moms living at the poverty level--who hold the party positions at the local level.

Bernie doesn't participate in party meetings. In fact, he won't even join. He saves his comments for the cameras.

This OP began as a discussion of use of the term "liberal elite" to describe Democrats. Now you claim that the fact random attendees at a rally aren't able to influence a party that they haven't bothered to join or participate in means the party is dominated by "elites." The fact you share Bernie's contempt for the people who make up the party doesn't refute my point at all. In fact, it reaffirms it. The point you fail to grasp is that "the people" are not confined to 11 million people who happen to agree with you but also includes the rest of the citizens of this country, including the Muslims, African Americans, Latinos, poor whites, and others pictured in my OP.
