To the Democratic National committee and the politician-members of the Democratic Party:

Having sabotaged the campaign of Senator Sanders, whom the DNC permitted to run under the DP banner, then having run fraudulent primary caucuses and elections in many states, the DNC then anointed Hillary Clinton as its nominee--although the public had been saying for years, and current polls indicated, that she could not win election as President.

You participated in such outright fraud because you were convinced that you could ride roughshod over the American public yet again, as you have done repeatedly since Bill Clinton first took office. Elected DP presidents, congressmen, governors, state legislator and mayors have rolled over and bowed down to the Republican Party and failed at every opportunity to stand up for the rule of law, for honest and UNCORRUPT government, for the protection of our climate and our environment, for the purity, safety, and reasonable cost of our medinices and our food, and for an end to illegal, pointless, unsuccessful warmaking, extradition, detention, and torture. You have done nothing to curb police violence, to reduce income inequality, or to raise the minimum wage. Instead, you have often voted WITH Republicans to pass legislation that has steadily eroded the economic stability, the health and welfare, and the education of the American people, our climate, and our environment.

After Debbie Wasserman-Schultz FINALLY was forced to resign as head of the DNC--after wrecking Seantor Sanders' campaign and the primary elections, you said not a single word when Clinton put Schultz on her campaign staff--a slap in the face to every Democrat and to the honesty and credibility of the entire party.

Now, thanks to your corruption and treachery, we are confronted with an almost nationwide Republican grasp of our government, granted by one of the smallest voter turnouts in our history. YOU are to blame both for that majority and for the election of Donald Trump.

Yet you are blaming what has happened upon everything and everyone but yourselves. The accusations of Russian attempts to influence our election by hacking were ludicrous, incredible, and dangerous. The divisiveness engendered by Trump's campaign never prompted you to make a single protest. You haven't even protested the construction of the many tar sands pipelines that now sanke across our country, or even the mad plan to tunnel under the Missouri River with such a pipeline, although it would threaten the potable water supply of millions of American downstream from that crossing, and has breached our treates with the Sioux Nation.

You are failures and disgraces, individually and as a group. Perhaps not every one of you was directly participated in campaign sabotage or election fraud, but every single one of you knew about it, yet not one of you spoke out about it to the American people. You have utterly failed to represent the people, and have concerned yourselves not with raising money, but with lining your own pockets.

I think you all should resign, and I think the officers of the party in every single state and county and small town should resign, too. Let citizens who still support your corrupt party indicate who THEY want to lead it.

No Democrat who voted for Fast Track, the DARK act, the Patriot Act--or any of the other hundreds of damaging pieces of legislation which the American people opposed, but the .0001% supported--should be considered for any position in the DNC. Super delegates should be eliminated: They never were intended to do anything except enable the DNC and the DP to freeze out a candidate such as Senator Sanders.

The harm you have done is irreversible.  Your culpability is total and indefensible.  Your integrity is nonexistent.

Select the most experienced of the PROGRESSIVE candidates from across the nation who did not win election to become officers of the DNC and the DP and recommend them for election by state and local Democrats to positions in state and local party organizations. Those people at least all have clean hands--which none of you do--and they will no be burdened with responsibilities as elected officials.
