Progressives have to step-up or else it's 4 or 8 yrs of you know who.

[CK_John]

The progressive wing have to decide if it is a political movement or just a tweeter account. First it has to learn to listen, it has to learn to hold
meetings not just rallies. It has to learn consensus.

Most important it has to reach agreement on 3 core objectives and at most 2 additional to be studied objectives. It has to giveup the idea anyone can walk in the door and have their agenda placed on the list of objectives.

This will be very difficult but it's all that's left.

1. it's all there ever was.

clinton signed nafta and welfare to work for single mothers. obama is finally taking a little bit of the edge off the "lets spend billions of dollars putting people in cages for getting high" campaign, clinton didn't. idk maybe i'm crazy, right?

2. The Progressive Caucus is the largest Democratic Caucus in Congress

Progressives know how to hold meetings, set agendas, reach goals. You sound like your political knowledge comes from a right wing comic book about liberals. Barf.

4. Most progressives I know can tolerate incrementalism and what is popularly regarded as center left.

Notice I said what is popularly regarded as center left (Clinton, Obama... don't agree? Tough, consensus matters)...

I happen to be one of those progressives and if I think Hillary Clinton is the best shot at preventing a repeat of 2001-2009, then I will support her and tolerate it.
