A progressive political group that boosted New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's bid for Congress last year vowed to oppose former Vice President Joe Biden in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary, blasting him as part of the “old guard” and accusing him of standing in opposition to the “center of energy” in the Democratic Party.

Ocasio-Cortez-aligned group attacks Biden, says he’s out of touch with Democratic Party

MEMBERS of his own party.

At times, it seems they are fractured beyond repair

That's not his own party. That is a political action committee that focuses on promoting progressive democrats and their platforms.

I'm encouraged that some of you might now start to realize now that not every Democrat running for president is a radical extreme far-left socialist.

You are saying progressive Democrats and Democrats are two different parties?

I don’t think so, I think they are both Democrats, but the party is fractured between the old guard and the new radicals.

Is the Tea Party and Republicans two different parties? This is part of the issue of having a two party system in the US, the two parties end up with a number of coalitions, each with their own priorities as to what is most important and differing agendas.

No. I'm saying a Democratic PAC is not the Democratic Party. You said it's his own party that is attacking him.

There are different ideological factions within each of the two major parties. That is true.

That said, a political action committee (a PAC) is neither a faction nor a party in itself. They are organizations with specific interests in politics and look to promote candidates that align with their stated interests. Not all that surprising that they would also then put down the candidates that don't align with their specific interests.

I changed it to MEMBERS of his own party. Does that help. Yeesh

No. And thank you for pointing it out

True. But not at this level.

When has a Freshman Congresswoman ever threaten the Party leadership and actually hold a protest in the Speakers Office?

The party is being fractured from within

Is that a problem?
It is for the modern Democratic party which is focused on matters of diversity in race/religion. To vote in a old, rich, white man for a lot of Democrats is a big problem.

To me it's only a problem that it's Joe Biden whom I find immensely creepy.

This is a good move for him:

Former Vice President Joe Biden asked former President Barack Obama not to endorse him as he wades into the 2020 Democratic primary, according to Biden's deputy campaign manager.​

They will not print it, but I think an endorsement from the former President is a kiss of death politically

What MEMBERS would those be?

Are you surprised to find that not every single Democrat in the United States is backing Joe Biden?

I can see why this would seem like a problem to the party that's placed loyalty to one man well above loyalty to their own principles and convictions.

What on earth are you complaining about now?

I’m simply speaking about a political topic. My op save 5 words is from the source linked.

I am not the author of the source.

And my 5 little words seems to have you in hysterics. I’m just not sure why?

If you would like to address the topic I will respond, other than that .....

You've given me a great idea. Hillary is a self-serving opportunist; I wonder how much we would have to pay her to endorse Trump?
