'It's very true,' writes Thom_Hartmann, 'that 'corporate Dems' have let us down repeatedly.' But that's not all that's true.
Democrats can and do change when enough progressives get involved.
But to do that here takes political change within one of our two parties. A political revolution, to paraphrase Bernie. Instead, changing American politics and creating a progressive future requires large numbers of us working from the bottom up, getting directly involved in the daily, messy work of the Democratic Party.
Today, she and other progressives within the Democratic Party have become major forces in our nation. We need more like her. Progressives are gaining political power by the day, and America needs us to continue pushing back against the corporate bribery and graft that's infected both parties. While the Republican Party has turned to outright white supremacy and neofascism, the Democratic Party has rapidly moved in a more progressive direction. But there are still stragglers.
