How could we start a caucus?
Thinking about how the DLC and its friends have sort of taken control of the party. Why not an organization for disenfranchised old democrats - you know, liberals?

How would one go about getting the DNC to acknowledge a left wing of the party? Any ideas?

2. Start from the bottom up.
By electing true liberals to local and state office. If you can't find any, run for office yourself.
