    We need our own party, but before that can happen we need nationwide elimination of first past the post elections. Or the demise of the Democratic party. I’ll take either but preferably both.

      Never going to happen. First pass the post will never change within the Democratic Party. On the other hand the Democratic party might already be dead. It’s injured to the point that abandoning it doesn’t cause any problems that don’t already exist. This is the point to kill it.

        doesn’t cause any problems

        Have you not been paying any attention at all to what Traitorapist Trump is doing?

          What a useless waste of time your comment here is. You quoted a fraction of a sentence ignoring everything around the sentence that qualifies the part you’re quoting. That literally answers the question you’re asking. Perhaps continuing to read a sentence would help you understand the meaning of the sentence.

            That literally answers the question you’re asking.

            It does no such thing. You have no idea how bad things would be if Republicans controlled all of the government every single year instead of alternating back and forth with Dems. To pretend things would not be way worse if the country was a 1 party state controlled by the GOP for the last 50 years is ignorant beyond belief.

            What a useless waste of time your comment here is.

            It is not possible to have a more useless waste of time than your comment here…

            [On the other hand the Democratic party might already be dead]

            The Democratic Party is 193 years old. You predicting its sudden “death” shows astonishing ignorance. I was going easy on you with my short answer.
