"No more dynasties"--for women, that is

[Ken Burch]

47. FDR was a class traitor...standing with the poor against the 1%.

If I had a time machine, I'd actually go back and replace him with Eleanor-she was MORE of a class traitor and came close to being the only former First Lady in American history to get blacklisted in the late 40s.

Can you think of any rich people who might possibly run in 2020 or 2024 who are remotely like that? There aren't even Kennedys who are like that now, as far as I know,

The issue here is class. We need to nominate someone-and at this point I don't care who it is-who is NOT part of the 1%.

Could be a woman, a person of any color, an LGBTQ person.

It just needs to be an outsider who has had some experience with living a life outside of privilege.

It sounds as though you STILL assume any lack of left enthusiasm for HRC in '16(or wariness about nominating Chelsea, who at this point doesn't even have any experience in elective office and hasn't, to my knowledge expressed any personal interest in starting a political career) as grounded in hatred of women.

It also sounds as though you still can't let go of the idea that we should view internal Democratic politics solely through a Sanders people v. Clinton/Obama people frame of reference. Isn't it time, at long last, to move past that and to start working for coalition and common ground?
