People always try to make this debate: “Is so-and-so the future of the
Democratic Party?” What does that even mean?
The Democratic Party is like an idea — a notion. I don’t spend my days
thinking about Democrats. I spend my days and nights thinking about
people, about the working class, and about what the right thing to do is.
I’d rather spend my time talking about how we change the conversation so
we can actually win things. That’s the conversation I’m interested in
having.
How about we ask what issues are the future of the Democratic Party?
How about we ask is guaranteed healthcare the future of the Democratic
Party? Is banning insider trading by members of Congress the future of the
Democratic Party? Is putting limits on lobbying the future of the
Democratic Party?
They never ask about the issues — and that’s on purpose. Because then it’s
about what we’re saying. It’s about the agenda that speaks to people.
Wouldn’t you rather elect someone who’s trying to do those things —
someone who’s working for us and not for special interests?
That’s what I want. Someone who’s trying. Someone who’s fighting for us.
If you don’t like where the Democratic Party is right now, the truth is a
lot of the action next year will happen in the primaries. That’s when we
can change who represents us.
The people define the Democratic Party. Not the DNC. Not incumbents. It
doesn’t have to be like this — but it’s up to us to change it.
