If there's one thing that has been illuminated this primary, it's corruption.

[cali]

And I mean corruption within the democratic party. The list is too long to detail exhaustively, but a couple of highlights easily come to mind.

The DNC favoring Hillary to the degree that they're functioning as an arm (and a powerful one) of the Clinton campaign. And that is no exaggeration. From the whole debate thing to DSW lifting the Obama ban on lobbyist and PAC donations to benefit Hillary. Any reasonable person should clearly be able to see that the DNC has put both hands on the scale.

Hillary's pack of lobbyist fundraisers. Legal is not the same as ethical.

A Democratic U.S. Representative clearly influenced by Pay Day Lenders.

The ridiculous antics of Hillary superfan and Iowa DNC chair, Andy McGuire.

This is Democratic Underground. We're here to support the Democratic Party its candidates. Now calling the Democratic Party "corrupt" and then some elected Democratic officeholders corrupt is beyond belief and entirely inappropriate. This should not be permitted to stand.

5. This OP should be fleshed out as a publishable article.

It matters. For those who care about the Democratic Party, it matters.

9. If the Democratic Party and Democratic office holders are so corrupt, why not either....

....do something truly positive to change it or look for another party that better represents what you believe?
