65. Well said, Chasstev365

I also lived through all of these events. I have seen the Democratic Party become less and less relevant to the actual needs of the people as they gave lip service to those needs. It has become a party of people of power; a different wing of the 1% club.
I have felt the need for change in my party ever since the Clinton sellout to the ultra rich in the 1990's.
If you don't agree with me, look what happened to a true populist when he tried to buck the Democratic establishment in the last presidential primary. The same thing that the Republicans did to Ron Paul 4 years earlier.
The two major parties are simply two sides of the same coin.
You can't expect fundamental change from the same people...only the illusion of change.
The other side "drained the swamp", only to fill it with bigger, meaner alligators.
The other side wants to "make america great again", even though they lack the single one thing that could possibly allow that to happen...Love!
So, we need to be better; a whole lot better than we have been to counter the mean spirited actions of the Republicans.
It may not be easy, but truth will out if the tellers are worthy of the message, and have the courage, strength and determination to build a party that is truly loving, compassionate, and fair to all.
Don't tell me I'm dreaming. I already know that. All of us have dreams. The best of us can make them into reality.
