Ever read, LISTEN, LIBERAL - What Ever Happened To The Party of The People? by Thomas Frank, pub. early 2016?...From inside the dust jacket:
With sardonic wit and lacerating logic, Frank lays bare the essence of the Democratic Party's philosophy and how it has changed over the years. A form of corporate and cultural elitism, he charges, has largely eclipsed the party's old middle-class commitment. For certain favored groups in a handful of cities, this has meant prosperity. But the the nation as a whole, it is a one-way ticket into the abyss of inequality. In this critical election year, Frank recalls the Democrats back to their historic goals - the only way to reverse the ever-deepening rift between the rich and the poor in America.

The Dem party has a choice - continue to blame the Repubs and their false prophets, or get back to being a political party of/for the people.

Frank also wrote, WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH KANSAS? - a critical look at America's heartland who continues to vote against their own interest.
