This is dumb! It's not a choice between being truly a party for the working class or catering to "various interest groups." A party for the working class *is* a party for POC, queer, and antiwar folks. C'mon. Be more serious and more imaginative.

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.
