37. This modern democratic party puts privileged agendas and money ahead of people.
It's at the root of war policy, continued hegemony, half-assed pathetic and shameful domestic policy, inexcusable economic policy.....

It's ridiculous, pathetic and disgusting.

I will say this though - the party is a master at selling the "we're better than republicans" line to its faithful masses. It's the only tool they need to keep their people in line and continue their own part in running the country into the ground.

We we need is to stop looking at it as Republican vs. Democrat and start looking at is as people vs. power.

Sorry but the national Democratic Party has become power, and answers to wealth and privilege first these days. It's time for a battle against these institutions that prioritize the wants and whims of the privileged elite over the needs of working class Americans. Take off the "D" insignia, at least until those who have totally betrayed the most noble ideals of the party are removed.


The world is my country, not the united states.

The people are my party, not the democratic elitist party

To do good is my religion, not judeo-Christianity or any other institutional indoctrinator.
