The Democratic Party is a "working-class party" ( Wage-Labour Class) within the above passage. We know it is also contradictorially a bourgeois party , but surely the working class parties Engels and Marx refer to above had contradictory class influences on them .
Communists are "sections" of working class parties, not whole separate parties.
Exactly what I'm getting at. There is a decades long class struggle in the Democratic Party for dominate influence so , the DP vacillates from FDR to Truman , from LBJ to Clinton. With Obama we start another swing to working-class dominance . Sanders being allowed to even run is proof of that. Our Marxist job is to be a section of the working-class Democratic Party that pushes it to be totally dominated by working-class interests vs bourgeois interests .
//. Kurt : "I would agree with you Charles Brown, the Democratic has been a working class party since the New Deal. In the area of Civil Rights, the democrats and republicans exchanged their positions during the period 1932 to 1964. The Republicans were nominally the party of the African American between 1876 and 1948, but had surrendered their progressive position with the Hayes-Tilden deal of 1876."
