The DNC will require presidential nominees' funding to come primarily from small-money, grassroots donors

I’ll believe it when I see it.

Sanders sent out an email today where he claims corporate democrats are already running attack ads against him claiming his social bias issues - healthcare for all - will cause a Democratic defeat in 2020. Sounds to me like corporate buy-out of DNC leadership.

Right now, a group of Wall Street Democrats known as the Third Way is running ads in early primary states — Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada — calling me out by name and saying our ideas, like Medicare for all, are a path to defeat in 2020.

They not only want to discourage or defeat a Sanders candidacy, they want to make sure that the progressive agenda is not advanced by anyone. They want us to go back to their failed corporate approach which has led to a massive level of income and wealth inequality, a bloated military budget and a failure to address the crises of climate change, a broken criminal justice system and inhumane immigration policies.
