Senator Reed calls for unity in the Democratic Party- but is it " unprincipled " unity ?

  Party unity is a meaningless façade unless it is principled. With the most " good will " in the world how do you reconcile " political revolution " stressing " unacceptable economic inequality " ( Bernie Sanders ) with the " greed is good " Wall St. status quo ? Quasi-pacifism with Neo-Colonialism ?


 What has the ONE PERCENT done for that " angry working class " lately ? Both Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump agree that the American Dream is dead. The Zeitgeist for Election 2016 is clearly anti-establishment.

       It does not help for Hillary supporters to make reckless claims that Bernie Sanders supporters have a " penchant for violence ". That is nothing less than resurgent McCarthyism. A new Red Scare ?

       Senator Reed -like President Obama - often sounds very reasonable while essentially trying to square the circle.
