A Battle for the Soul of the Democratic Party

Joe Biden's win is not a healing; it's a reprieve. Now, not later, is the time to make that very clear both to ourselves and to him.

There’s a countervailing argument as well. Beginnings are important & if you don’t make changes at the beginning it’s much harder to do later. FDR came in & did things fast. If Biden sets up a corporatist cabinet from the beginning then nothing but incremental changes will happen

Incremental changes can be regressive. That's what worries me. This guy is still telling us weed needs more research.

There’s almost zero chance he won’t install a corporatist cabinet. That’s what the problem is/was/continues to be.

Any change is going to be incremental! I know many want the Green New Deal done tomorrow! That simply won’t happen! It isn’t possible in this political climate! What IS possible is to take a priority from it, such as healthcare reform, and make THAT the Progressive priority!
