Will Rogers famously said, "I'm not a member of any organized political party.... I'm a Democrat”--and the race for next year’s presidential nomination is running true to form.

Issues, including debate on climate change and criticizing Obamacare, have mobilized activists against the party establishment.
Can the Democrats get it together in time?
