While liberals have held their tongues as Kamala Harris tacked to the center, they're preparing for a major battle over the future of the party, with personnel emerging as a flashpoint.
Progressives need to start finding a primary challenger for 2028 as soon as the polls close. Democrats will feel no leftward pressure otherwise and we’ll be unprepared if we wait.
We were frankly cheated out of a primary this year. The last primary without a preordained winner was 2008. We cannot let this become any more normal than it already has.
Yeah, Hillary “the annointed” went over swell and the DNC has apparently learned exactly zip from the experience. They’re never going to serve the interests of people, only of Capital.
It sounds like you don’t yet understand that the DNC has full authority to determine who is allowed to percolate to Party designated positions. This is why when the DNC kneecapped Bernie Sanders, the courts said,“nah it’s a private party- they can do as they please.”
So, my point- if progressives did find a candidate to champion, there would be nothing preventing the DNC from simply saying, “no.”

Agreed, which is why progressives need to start as early as possible.
lol, with what leverage?
Hence why they need to get a primary candidate early. If you can think of some other way to exert pressure, I’m all ears.
First you have to figure out what’s going to prevent the DNC from simply saying, “nuh uh.”
To having primaries? I mean sure, if they want to go completely mask off and stop pretending to be a democratic anything.

You got a better idea? Because I don’t think the even the DNC is that eager to throw an entire wing of their party away.
When are you guys going to start calling yourselves Marxists/Communists, instead of hiding behind some newspeak label?
