I wish I could believe there would be a next election or that Americans were capable of learning.

Biggest problem with Bernie. He's been beaten for years into somehow believing the liberal lie that we can all be a family if we just vote hard enough. He points out the bullshit well, but then just connects it to voting for more democrats. There needs to be a call for a new workers parry. We need a new party, not a new democrat.

Math & Chaos theory says you have to get rid of FPtP voting before that can happen.

There is a reason the GOP is making other voting methods illegal in states they have control over.

Then, even if you manage that, those parties have to do the work at a local level. The Democratic Socialists seem to be the only 3rd party that understands that. The rest of them are nothing more than novelty parties or outright spoilers.
