Submitted by edg on Fri, 03/06/2020 - 11:08am"We think that our constituents, our members, will not necessarily think of Sanders as the best choice. We wouldn’t have the Violence Against Women Act if it wasn’t for Biden’s leadership," NOW President Toni Van Pelt continued. "Sanders doesn’t have a record. He’s really, as far as we know, done next to nothing for women and for our issues."

Listen Up Democratic Party Establishment
Submitted by JtC on Thu, 03/05/2020 - 1:46pmAs a member of the disaffected left, I feel it is my duty to let you know that I will do whatever I can to throw a monkey wrench into the upcoming election by not voting for your chosen candidate. Period. And I will do my utmost to convince others of the same.
We, the disaffected left, have the power to split this Party. I hope you understand that.
I will never vote for a Democratic establishment/centrist ever. I will vote anything but blue if you shove another centrist down our throats.
Who's with me.
