The enemy is not within. We may disagree within the Party, but we are not the opposition.

There are events in political history that our current sad state of economics and social justice can be traced back to. Since the ’80s almost all of those were advanced and supported by Democrats. The transition of America from the successes of FDR, Truman, Eisenhower (who was also a Democratic Socialist but ran on the GOP ticket), Kennedy, and Johnson, to the miserable state of the union currently is not a natural course of events. It was conceived and perpetrated by criminals hiding behind the party label of Democrat.

Its trajectory has been constant and always the result of lesser evil choices and a purposefully weak opposition to the wishes of the ruling class. The current darling of the party, President Obama, was responsible for greatly expanding our war centered foreign policy while making every attempt to cut the social safety nets, including Social Security which even hardcore Republicans were shy about attempting. He almost managed to install the worst trade agreement for workers in our history, and Hillary was laser focussed on completing that.

Political parties mean nothing if their leadership is composed of those who have little regard for the plight of the working class and poor. There is absolutely no economic reason for America to be so deprived of common welfare spending and programs except for the fact that no one represents the people and the leadership of both parties are filled with grifters and opportunists willing to walk on the corpse of the working class to obtain their personal objectives. So, yes, I believe the enemy is within, and so does Bernie, which is the primary reason I support his policies and agenda.
