(20,234 posts)out of our party. For all those "Party above Policy" posters who want to claim we have to allow Third Way Democrats in so we can have majority. I say what use is the majority if you are ignoring the will of the people?
If the Democratic candidates would run on the clear message that:
If elected they will;
1 Provide universal single payer health CARE.
2 Eliminate the CAP on SS.
3 Use the money to give an immediate 35% raise to SS recipients and enact an automatic inflation adjustment.
4 Pass laws to guarantee the SCOTUS is required to abide by ethical restrictions.
5 Federally fund all future Federal elections.
6 Eliminate machines from vote counting.
I guarantee they would take back the House, maintain the Senate and win the WH.
What are the reasons they are giving us to vote Democratic now?
