This is what democracy looks like...being all up in the grill of our (dubiously) elected legislators!
I don't know if it's true, but last month the Wall Street Journal reported that the Democratic National Committee is being taken over by Sanders-nistas, which *I* found very heartening.
If you go to something billed as a Movement event in Jersey City, it's almost guaranteed that the mayor will show up, and in NYC there's a good chance that the mayor will. Rallies nationwide are frequently headlined by US Senators--a level of opposition among elected officials that took a DECADE to build in the struggle against the Vietnam War.
