In reply to the discussion: Hillary Throws Shade at Bernie: 'Fundamentally Wrong' About Democratic Party [View all]Ninsianna
(1,349 posts)leadership positions in parties they have abandoned (despite making promises to stay in the party) shirk that responsibility so that they can "air their grievances" and divide the party whose voters ultimately rejected them.
Hillary, a private citizen, is giving her account, which the party has been asking her to do. Trying to silence her while allowing other "party leaders" to deliberately attack and divide the party is simply more evidence that her grievances are very real and deserve an airing. It's in studying what happened that we correct the flaws. Not forcefully confronting the dirty tricks was a mistake, allowing in people who are not members of the party and whose goals are not to advance the party was a mistake. It's a lesson we need to learn.
