The
Democratic Party -corrupt as it is - is not a mechanical thing
absolutely predetermined to nominate Hillary Clinton as president of the
United States.
" Socialist " Democrat Bernie Sanders is not naive in thinking he can win the nomination, reform this pro-war, pro-Wall St.. ruling class, still human political machine ?
A little thing called the Zeitgeist makes this the year of the Anti-Establishment Voter.
While Bernie Sanders is calling for " political revolution " neo-Democrat , Hillary Clinton is clearly the Queen of the Status Quo. Why should any half serious supporter of Sanders ( I intend to vote for him in the late April Democratic Primary in Rhode Island ) make such an unprincipled switch to Hillary if she finally wins the Democratic Party nomination ?
A presidential candidate who can be so humiliated in so many state primaries and caucuses - and still is as complacent of victory as Hillary- is a clinical case of denial and hubris.
The pro-establishment news media here in the United States clearly favors Hillary. It is always slighting or disparaging Bernie Sanders victories. I guess the ruling class prefers Hillary's stale " identity politics " to Bernie Sanders' " democratic socialism " .
As Karl Marx said the ruling ideas are the ideas of the ruling class. Socialism as anathema is the ruling idea in capitalist besotted America. Even Bernie's moderate " democratic socialism " .
Was that little bird that landed on the podium while Sanders was speaking a sign from heaven ?
