There’s a lesson there for the Democratic Party. It can be the party of the Good Aristocrats, or it can be the Anti-Authoritarian Party. But it can’t be both. ] Yet to be determined which way the party goes.
The People’s Summit is returning to Chicago in June, and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has been tabbed to deliver the event's keynote address.

The younger progressives will attempt to wrest control from the establishment, pulling the party to left. The establishment's resources will prove to be an insurmountable challenge, as they cut out progressive candidates legs from beneath them, all the while pleading for "unity". In the end, progessives will call their defeat a victory, because "look how far we've come". And the establishment will retain control, because "who else are you gonna vote for? The Republicans?"
