Is the best way to push Biden in a less corporatist & more humanitarian direction to stay within the Democratic Party in exchange for perceived (or imaginary) access, or to form another party that could actually threaten the citadels? Not saying I know the answer; I’m just asking

Bernie proved that staying with the Democratic Party is useless.

I feel that, until every party that can register in the presidential elections all 50 states gets equal time with the Demopublicans, we will not have a representative republic. It's why I do not vote.

Tear it all down.

I’m angry, too. But more fighting, regardless of how many major political parties there are, will only get us just so far. Meanwhile, we are building the world we want to see without them! The big old hierarchies are all but washed up by now. The power is in our hands.

The DNC appreciates all of the progressive stoolies that keep people from leaving the party. In return, they will give you nothing and if you follow Bernie Sanders lead you will call them friends, endorse them, and campaign for them.

Of course the more centrist democrats don't like for their party to be "taken over", but doing it any other way is much more difficult, and in reality the parties have changed over time anyway. If the organization and money was there I think a strong third party would be good.

Times up. If they don’t do the right thing... I will NEVER vote for a DNC candidate again. And they’ll lose the future youth vote. They truly know how to shrink their base. @PeoplesParty_US

You would be best served to take a few steps back and seriously consider why we live the way we do. Then perhaps you'll have an answer to your question, rather than only our opinions..

The solution is revolt. Historically no oligarchy claiming democracy has lasted. Oligarchy is a form of government in which power is exercised by a small group for their benefit; it can be a religious, noble,political, corporate group, etc. We have the corporate/political here.

No way to push him left! @JoeBiden is a right winger, and all his cabinet are warmongers, wall street, lobbyists! The only way is to destroy this corrupt machine @DNC ! Vote #3rdParty
