The emergence of a new political party in the USA?

Listening to the current election debates it has become apparent (at least to me) that many of the ideas/solutions to America's problems by the leading the candidates are somewhat Socialist in nature.

Are we seeing the emergence of a new political party in the USA?


The Selective Socialist Movement

Most individuals understand the term Socialism and understand its ramifications, but what of Selective Socialism?

The USA already has Socio-economic programs in existence!

US postal service
corporate bail out programs
food stamps
Chips program
Social security
Medicare
Education
minimum wage

So why don't the candidates be honest and state they support Socialism at the very least what I have termed Selective Socialism.

Selective Socialism Defined- the control of key economic commodities/services required for stable, positively substantiated, social and economics growth for all members/citizens of an organization, state , or nation.

How do we select these key economic services and commodities?
I believe we already have, they are the issues that dominate the current political debates

1) Health Care
2) Education
3) Energy- all forms shapes and sizes green or black
4) Affordable Housing
5) Affordable Food stocks

I believe we are headed for a more Socialist Society no matter how the candidates term it.
