That doesn't really make sense at the end...
Like, it's structured so that logically it's a conclusion but it's not.
A bottom-up power structure is left wing, but in it the power lies with the voters, not those elected to office:
The federal party, works for the state parties and the presidential nominee.
The state parties actually do a lot here, they have a lot of primaries to organize (neutrally) and then assist all the campaigns.
In both cases though, the politicians are beholden to the voters, and should be governing based on the wishes of the majority of their constituents.
What would go a long way to fixing that would be an easy route to recall elections.
