The Democratic party of today is controlled by sixties leftists (like I once was) who are still holed up mentally within the "movement". They didn't have a clue then and don't have a clue now as to,once they dispose of the "military industrial complex", get the evil right wingers out of office, and acquire power, WHAT THEY WILL DO.
Yes, they are anti-capitalist, but as we saw when one of theirs finally DID acquire power in '92, they only tried to neuter the military and CO-OPT the capitalists(NAFTA), NOT replace them.
Pure socialists they are not, it's yet another core value they don't possess, which to me makes them even more dangerous.
I just think that it's astounding that a group of people could be so misguided about something so important. To work so hard for something (many of them do) and apparently have no real idea of what your efforts will cause or do if realized just seems insane.
