A New Progressive Democratic Party
Let's form a "New Progressive Democratic Party" to support genuinely progressive candidates at the federal and state levels throughout the country, and compete against those so-called "Democrats" who are not committed to progressive change in government. The time has come!
Why is this important?
The entire country is affected by too many cowardly and/or "Republican Lite" Democratic leaders in congress. We need a new party that will support progressive Democrats and work against the others. Harry Reid's hypocritical failure to move forward on filibuster reform, along with a number of other Senate "Democrats", is all the evidence we need to demonstrate the need.
