If this is how you see the Democratic Party, I don’t see how you have any right to call yourself a moderate and not a radical.

This is sort of hilarious, because I’d think you have a duty to call yourself a radical. If you’re not a radical by now, then you’re just a collaborator. It’s not about black and white, it’s about black and blacker.

Of course one has to act and vote in a sane manner and play politics, but if your rhetoric and our demands aren’t seen as radical by the mainstream, that’s a problem. Like e.g. universal healthcare.
