Summary
Bernie Sanders criticizes the Democratic Party for neglecting the working class, leading to their recent election losses.
He highlights issues like economic inequality, job displacement, healthcare costs, and foreign policy as key concerns for the American people.
Sanders questions whether the Democratic leadership will address these issues or remain beholden to big money interests.
It’s the reality of first past the post. Third party voting is simply almost never an option. You’re mad at a natural law of the election system. Don’t hate the players, hate the game
If the third party is actually able to represent the people better than one of the current two why can’t it be switched to it? It could start with local elections to then state level candidates, it wouldn’t be a switch out of the blue, most people wouldn’t even know it exists the first few elections (hell, just the amount of people googling if Biden had dropped out of the race on the day of elections shows how uninformed people can be) but the current state of the democratic party can’t stay, it either gets kicked out or it adapts because of competition
Because of FPTP, that means that the GOP will have the presidency for a long time because the Democrats vote would be split.
And if that is the case, you can be sure that no voting reform will happen, bringing back the two party system.
It’s the natural evolution of FPTP system.
The best case scenario would be for the Democratic party to prop up a political reform as one of their main issue, in the hope that the voters will give them the presidency, senate and house to do just that.
But the DNC would have to follow through will all of that if they get to that point, which probably won’t happen.
So yeah, it looks bleak no matter how you look at it.
Then make the Democrat party the third party lol
I want the GOP third party where they belong.
Ha, if only
Well we lost the chance this year. Man I have never been so wrong about people coming out just to stop Trump. I would have loved to see the GOP eat each other.
Doesn’t matter as long as Republicans are #1.
