Populist Reform of the Democratic Party

but...I think I understand where you are going. The "Left" as in "FireDogLake" and others tried with "Act Blue" to get Dem Candidates and were partially successful. But, if you mention "FireDogLake" the Website on DU these days you are laughed at...or derided in strongly worded terms....or ignored.

Maybe the Left can build on what we've learned through the years. And it will be through Grassroots and Underground efforts and not the Sites like DU/Daily Kos and the Blogosphere Pundits that thrived in the Bush Years. It will be something new...and not tied into the Media we helped build...that sadly just wasn't enough once we threw all our efforts behind Obama and were left with just being cheerleaders for whatever came next.

Something NEW will come. It can't come soon enough, imho.. But, it might take sorting out Hillary and Jeb before we get to the point where something NEW can get some traction. just my humble opinion of watching this all this since Windows 95 opened the gate for the Masses of us to be able to communicate with each other in huge numbers of old, middle and young who were not all that Computer Savvy but could now find a way to use the first Personal Computers with Browsers, E-Mail and the rest.

The Internet Explosion that took off with Stolen Election 2000 followed by "9/11" and the Iraq Invasion. Building the Grass Roots...we did and the Blogosphere that took out traditional established Newspapers and Magazines and made Information for the Masses available on the Internet.

NOW we transition as Ads and Click Bait takes over the Internet...and move somewhere else?
