1. She Wants To Add A Second Party
The Right has the only major party, and it has two wings - the insane Republicans, and the quiet and competent Democrats.

Face it - two of the three Dem frontrunners for the Presidency voted to let Bush start an infinite war in Iraq, and were supporters of permanent 'free' trade with China. This utterly blows my mind. Not only are they allowed to keep calling themselves "Democrats" - they are frontrunners for the Presidency!

And almost nobody in Congress is doing there job - we've seen the most outright attack on the Constitution by an imperialist 'president' - and all that Congress can do is cravenly triangulate as fast as they can, ducking the only and obvious solutions of censure and impeachment.

I think that Sheehan simply wants to force a restoration what Dr. Dean used to call "The Democratic wing of the Democratic Party".
