The Democrats have reliedon "identity politics" for quite some time now. It was inevitable that they would stop nominating white men for President, and instead nominate a member of the "victim" class. But, they have several different victim classes. So, maybe it was also inevitable that there would be a year in which members of two victim classes would contend for the nomination. And, thanks to some odd rules of procedure, it is almost certain that neither can get the majority needed to secure the nomination. That pits the victim groups against each other, and almost guarantees that one victim class or the other will be disappointed in the outcome, and some of them may sit out the general election. This war between the constituent victim classes could spell trouble for the Democrats in the future. Let us hope so, because the Democrats deserve it.
