Why are you arguing with (and name calling) people who aren't even here?

That's not a given.

Internal elections that most working class people can't attend is one of our problems; they're taking advantage of voter fatigue.

What you're describing already happened. Every Democratic-Republican was better than every Whig. And then the Democrats were bribed further and further right. If we don't demand that they make themselves easy to replace, then it will happen again.
