    The Democratic Party needs to be burned to ashes. And I say this as a Democrat. It’s time for it to go the way of the Whigs.

        The Whigs were replaced by the Republicans, who maintained control over the Federal government for nearly the entire remainder of the 19th century, forcing the Democratic party to adopt progressive policies to survive.

        This is what we want, for the current Democratic Party to be replaced by a new, progressive organization, which can actually fight for us, and implement desperately-needed reforms.
