Reply #189: Yes I agree....though I think it would be smarter for disenfranchised

[ooglymoogly]

progressives (that would be all of us), sometimes called the base, in other words, to physically change our affiliation and voter registration from Dem to Independent en masse...(that would shake a few cockle shells) with Bernie Sanders at the helm. You want someone to pay attention?

Both parties court independents more than any other group. The pugs have taken over and bought off the Democratic party...we should take over the Independent "party" or at least dominate it, because it is up for grabs. I for one am totally disillusioned by the bogus two party system and our insane merry go round political system that is nothing more than Kabuki theater; staged by oligarchs to mollify the masses while they rob us blind and make us think we are in a democracy, which we definitely are not.

After all who in fact is more like us...0 a "democrat" or Bernie, an Independent.
