charlie rose show 4/5/2016, great discussion

xpost from video, http://www.democraticunderground.com/1017351637

http://www.charlierose.com/

the discussion about the democratic race begins at 18:24

rose asks,

is the democratic party of bill clinton dead? and more:

'On both sides, it's the system doesn't work.

Similar motivations on both sides. Solutions differ.

'Is the Democratic party of Bill Clinton dead?' Certainly is on life support, similar to what's happening in the Republican party.

Politicians can't articulate the pain.

Bernie Sanders is where the heart of the Democratic Party is.'

The question was by Charlie, "is the Democratic party of Bill Clinton dead...the party of the 'centrist'?"

Heilemann said that Bill Clintons party of the 90's is dead and a major part of the party is following Bernie. And it's not that they hate Hillary but she is from the Democratic party of the 90's and this Democratic party has moved on.

We HOPE the Democratic party has moved on, but DNC surely hasn't.
