(26,863 posts)We will be at this "convention" and we will have a say on this platform, win or lose---------------the DLC and the Third Way cannot run away from that fact, "if" Clinton gets the nomination she needs the political revolution votes behind her, that is a fact and she has an arrogance towards his supporters.
And the selective regional voting shows that she is a weak candidate in this election.
The process has not even finished "yet" and all we hear now is the talking heads saying this "are you going to drop out" or that and he should drop out, that is not a democracy, it is what normally called a rating show of greed, embedded in the oligarchies of the media.
And now the public gets the drivel that he should for the sake of the party "quit" it isn't going to happen, the corporate suites in the DLC and the Third Way are just that, corporate suites, they got there supposed show-----------------and now we public get that he should drop out, really, he has supporters backing him and we have and he has said he is in this to the end, that is because of the platform issues, on the table now and what this party is going to represent for the future, its that simple, either you are going to support the Clinton Third Way , DLC or you are going to be a progressive.
I want to know since, Clinton has been saying that she will support down ballot candidate, if she supports Tim Canova over Wassermann -Schultz, that is a litmus tests of her core values-----------------in my opinion.
Clinton has not said one word on supporting measures of the working class against the professional corporate suites-----------I still think of TPP, not one environmentalist or working class union representative was in on that negotiation, that is a disgrace, and it shows what the Third Way and DLC are all about
And the true measure is to have your voice heard on issues, and not change your political positions just for expedience, we did it during the Iraq War stupidity, the Vietnam Conflict---------------that is measure to be heard.
I have not heard one word from the Clinton "team" about the U.S. Supreme Court, not one, that is a issue, that is a litmus test of leadership-----------------the right wing has already said what they want-----------------more 35 years of right wing "stuff"
Have a good day
