something that is very
deep and very profound inside the Democratic Party, which is
this discontent with the system that is no longer producing for everyday
people,’ Simon Rosenberg, a Hillary [Clinton] supporter and the head
of NDN (formerly the New Democrat Network), a liberal think tank in
Washington, told me. ‘He has characterized Hillary as a champion of that
system and as somebody who is actually a leader of the system, while he
is the one that wants to change it.’ Rosenberg added, ‘He's Inot being
perceived as a leftist. He is being perceived as somebody who is I
deeply in touch with a sense that something has gone wrong and that
the system isnt working.’”
