Every segment of the Democratic party, could be made to see the wisdom of this, and how much a LT approach to things is needed. Handled properly, I think voters, not just dem, but independents could get on board and ready for the long haul, prepared to not be swayed by the 527s in the fall. It would be a good civics lesson for this new generation of excited young voters who expect wonderful things to happen overnight. No offense but there is something spooky and Orwellian about the grand plan being handed down while voters and new candidates are "made to see the wisdom" of what has been designed by...by whom? The cadre of party leadership that knows what's best for everyone? That's not democracy or the Democratic Party, fortunately. But it reminds me how much this must-be-Hillary-can't-be-anyone-else mantra has sunk in. And people mock Obama supporters for "drinking the Kool-Aid". This stuff is coming by the gallon now. If more of Hillary's people understood what was wrong with democratic centralism, they would understand why she didn't close out this race long ago as expected.

<<<They would make clear that the goal is 16 years of Democratic leadership because this is what it will take to turn the big oil tanker of the USA in a different direction. >>> What do we call it? The Great New Deal? ALL ABOARD

Katelew: I have a friend who swears that the other night while she was in another room (so she is not quite sure) that someone on TV said that Hillary had said she would consider being VP... Now, with all the plummeting going on as those two slug it out in the center of the ring and we as spectators not only don't know how they keep the pace up but wither with out own growing apathy at the continual conflict.... this sounds as though it was more wishful hearing than factual. We shall have to get a new name. Not misspoke but misheard.... Possible ?
