True Progressives: Are there any in America?

We hear things from democrats like "We need to end tax breaks for the rich", "'We need to pass Gay marriage", "We are gonna pass regulation". But it never occurs. We can see the Dodd-Frank act be passed but it does jack shit. Do true Democrats, Do true Progressives have a right to be mad? Hellz Yeah! When your promised time and time again something and you never get it I think you'd be kind mad. Even the few Progressives in america that are out there are really wimpy if they don't stand true to there convictions and values, the ones that got them elected. When I campaign for a candidate (I live in New York state so...) I'm not 100% into it really. They don't really have the full worker's mind or really care for the values. All democrats, all progressive need to stand up and stand a stand. Or at anything come to the table and care. Do I sound like a republican right now? Well kinda. Because it's kinda true when they don't stand up and only show up to say "Yeah whatever". But there's only one I can really say has they progressive mind 90% of the time Bernie Sanders. Senator from Vermont who is a True Progressive since once being affiliated with Vermont Progressive Party. That's all I can say. This is Progressive Everything.

  1. I'm not sure whether you've seen this list already: http://www.nationaljournal.com/congress/most-liberal-members-of-congress-20110226. It's the ten "most liberal" senators, and it includes your friend Sanders too. So I guess you're right about him :D
