    Oh yeah. But it’s people’s perceptions that everyone is hunting for anyways. It’s fake love for the working class in the way the rich love their butler but will replace him if he ever gets sick.

    But that perception and the story of the party is super important and how to win elections. The Democrats haven’t been chasing that identity and let it slip while trying to figure out who should be the candidate that cost the least amount of money for its donors.

    Why does the love of the working class have to be fake?!?!?!?

    Holy fucking hell, democrats have lost their mind.

    False choice dilemma.

    Democrats need to swallow their pride and arrogance and admit to themselves that they shouldn’t be going solo against the republicans.

    Do away with First Past The Post voting in blue states and let more players onto the field. This fight is bigger then the democratic party.

    If we had a more representative electoral system, more of the non voters would be engaged by the political process. More voters always has lead to more democratic votes.

    Why is the democratic party saying no to these easy extra votes when they fail to replace First Past the Post voting in states they control between elections?
