With Donald Trump rising in the polls and Hillary
Clinton panning out to be the Democratic Party's likely nominee, many on
the Left are already beginning to say that activists must throw their
weight behind Clinton, no mater how bad her track record. Whether or not
movements and activists should support the Democratic Party as a
"lesser evil" has been a long standing debate on the Left. In the
International Socialist Organization, we believe that supporting the
Democratic Party is a dead end street, instead socialists and radicals
should build an independent left wing alternative to the two party
system.
