I hear you Barbara, i am interested in your opinions and thoughts. I want positive and intelligent discourse. I do some small part in communicating with my community and financial support of causes supporting democracy. I am rather surprised that you are throwing darts at me as response to a respectful comment that I believe. Seems uncharacteristic? I am sorry to raise your ire. Apologies.

I am not angry. I promote activism. I am desperate to promote activism in the face of a coup d'etat. We are hanging by a thread for our Democracy. You realize the Sanders discussion is 9 years old. You realize people have been hating on and analyzing trump for also 9 years. We lost the 2024 election. Let's move on. I have seen too many long, long, long discussions on forums. It worries me. I promote doing more and talking less. We must hit the streets, not sit at our keyboards.

Did you look at the link I posted?

If you really want to hear my thoughts and opinions I will be glad to send you links for marches, writing Congress and other opportunities.

Yes Barbara, i know that 2016 was 9 years ago. I am not promoting the idea of a Sanders campaign. But i am commenting on the loss of the 2024 election. Not sexism, not racism although the themes were prevalent. The loss of both of those elections were a failure of the democratic leadership to not stuff the status quo down our throats. People want change. Bernie and AOC are speaking to that change. The dems have failed to show us that path, which is why so many low information voters went for the Liar. I have voted democrat my whole life, but am currently researching how to change affiliation to independent. Democrats canтАЩt keep people in their tent. That needs to be spoken. Otherwise we are yelling in a shrinking echo chamber.
