    My point is that the Democratic Party is changing, albeit slowly, by virtue of the electorate itself changing.

    lol, sure Jan.

    Call me when they stop funding:

    • Genocide
    • War
    • Bailouts for their rich friends
    • Torture
    • Surveillance Programs

    and start funding:

    • Healthcare for all
    • Fixes for the housing crisis
    • Real fixes for the environment and climate

    Until then, I’m going to pretty openly continue to not take you seriously.

      I’m talking about the electorate fam, the voters.

      Demographic changes is the only thing going to change the Democratic Party. Either we wait another decade plus for the boomers and Gen Xers to hopefully not make up the majority, or we change the voting system away from First Past the Post. I’m strongly in favor of the later there since that is something we can do to get progressives in power this decade.

      I will add that I would appreciate it if you gave me credit here. I’m trying to have a dialogue with you about this since these issues do affect all of us and I am personally trying to change things for the better through breaking down walls.
