DNC Chairman Perez needs to stop the infighting.

How many times does it have to be said, "The Democratic Party needs to be the party of the people, 24/7 and 50 states all the time." Not just during election seasons that bring about victory, but, all the time. That means the DNC has an organized effort to promote their policies and vision. 

NO MORE CHEAP SEATS. When the DNC invests in an American Vision that is real and works, the country will come together.

Tom Perez has a tough job. The 2016 elections were not only invaded by Russians, they were divisive within the party with a missing generation finding their own voice in Senator Bernie Sanders.

As a side note, Kid Rock is running for US Senator. The Republican grassroots pundits are look to Kid Rock, not "The Rock" as an icon to drive Democrats to their side.

“We’ve been annihilated at the local level,” Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a former national party chairman, told NBC News at the National Governors Association conference here last weekend. “My problem with the party is, we raise billions of dollars in the presidential year and then go away for four years until the next one.”...
