In what looms as a historically important election the progressive wing of the Democratic party seems intent on re-electing Donald Trump.
Someone might want to remind these people that Independents count for more registered voters than either of the two major parties and that 57% of Independents are currently saying they would never vote for Donald Trump.
Winning the White House is more important than having a revolution amongst yourselves at this juncture in our history. Some of these candidates make Barrack Obama look like George Will. BTW…I voted for Obama twice while living in a place like Oklahoma.
Just a suggestion…before you give free health care and free college tuition to people illegally entering the country you might want to somewhat court that 57% like me who have been paying into every New Deal program for the last forty years or more.
I’m almost certain I never read where FDR or LBJ suggested we give away everything for free to people entering the country illegally. I thought there was a process we all had to abide by to certain degrees. Does Bernie have a program where my wife and I can sign over our house to people illegally entering the country?
I’m all for abolishing Citizens United or ousting Mitch McConnell or exposing the Koch Brothers, but a suggestion for the progressive wing might be to somewhat court those in the middle in this country who still somewhat believe everything shouldn’t be given away and should be earned in going through a process in what used to be called living the American Dream.
As far as these Dems..if it were my call I’d take Michael Bennett and Tulsi Gabbard. But of course that won’t happen because she served her country and he ‘s too qualified.
If Kamala Harris is going to prosecute the case against Donald Trump she might ask for some pointers from Gabbard since the young woman from Hawaii cleaned her clock in the second debate.
These progressive Dems might also want to note that the last two Dems to win the White House as in Bill Clinton and Barrack Obama both moved towards the center in winning the White House and then being re-elected.
Just a suggestion.
