Why doesn't the independent from VT say that democrats need

to open up the party to white upperclass women married to republicans?? They afterall are the ones who actually went Trump.

Please please folks remember that Hillary beat trump by double digits amongst those persons making less than 75k.

9. Huh? Seems Sanders is being divisive with the "open up the party to the working class"...

as if blacks and browns don't work.

The Dem party is the party of the working class, maybe not trump-voting white workers who made their choice.

And we are getting kind of sick of Sanders who joins the party, then leaves the party but still wants to dictate policy.

Why the hell did he leave if wants a say?

They need to bring the apathetic Democratic voters back

They need the independents

They need to target the 50% of eligible voters who don't vote
