I know at least that the top level of people in the Democratic Party consists of the Chairperson (currently DWS) and 5 vice chairs, but I don't know who they are.

The DNC database fortunately has a complete record of actions with time stamps. Any competent outside database expert will be able to sort out who did what and when. This includes when the database partitions went down and why, who looked at what, and can ultimately prescribe corrective action if necessary. BTW, Bernie already has many times more items on his contributor list and therefore has much more to lose and less to gain than Hillary by a database malfunction.

From Screwed:
"Thom Hartmann’s book explains in simple language and with concrete research the details of the Neo-con’s war against the American middle class. It proves what many have intuited and serves to remind us that without a healthy, employed, and vital middle class, America is no more than the richest Third World country on the planet."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
From Screwed:
"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."
So (according to Congressman Alan Grayson) the Republican primary system still uses the unit rule? The Democratic Party got rid of that after the messy 1968 prmaries. The Republicans will have their change after this, I'm sure.
