Got it!
The far right had NO problem back in the 70's of developing a coordinated strategy to turn America into Amerika... but if those on the left want to continue the FDR New Deal and LBJ Great Society... and come to grips with the fact that the US is not the noble nation the Right wants us to believe in.. those people must be condemned.
Sorry.... I blame our defective electoral and political system for make Dems hate those who should be natural allies. Any one has a goddamn RIGHT to run for president... and any citizen has a RIGHT to vote their conscience for Nader or Stein. If we had a fucking rational electoral system with Instant Runoff Voting... no doubt those who voted Green would pick the Dem as a second choice.
And you're also absolving that antidemocratic abomination for the election loss. After all HCR WON. What other democracy puts up with this shit where a candidate REJECTED by the People goes on to "win" an election? Where are those Dems trying to reform our fucked up system? Maybe if FDR had started a reform movement we'd have a rational system by now... one where there was no EC... and one where 18% of the population didn't get 52% of the Senate... and where Dems now represent 33 million more Americans than the GOP but the GOP gets to run the Senate. Gee... if not for our antidemocratic system DEMS would be in control of both.
You need to get your values straight... and start thinking about the defects in the system that create these dysfunctional dynamics. But I suspect you won't.
