She lost me right there. As a Democrat, I feel confident in stating that we have never had such a thing.
It is a truth so old that Will Rogers was cracking jokes about it 100 years ago.
There was exactly one moment in history where Democrats had a plan and that was the New Deal.
Everything else has just been wild floundering and taking credit for other people's activism.
TBF the New Deal was a stolen idea too, so…
Stolen from a union organizer, too, if I remember correctly.
I don't really care who originally came up with a good idea, I only care that it gets implemented.
Hell, please democrats steal more leftist ideas. Have you heard the one about ranked choice voting? Ooh or how about mass public transit? I’ve got a real doozy of one about who should own the means of production…
When will these Democrats just get out of the way.
No she's right. The plan is to abandon leftist constituents and try to court right wing voters, at least for the DNC. We will never have a real left wing party in the US :(
Not without substantial electoral reform. Which puts us in the "chicken and the egg" scenario of not getting reform with the existing 2 party duopoly, and not breaking that duopoly without reform.
Almost a dozen Republican states have straight up made it illegal to do RCV. They're quick to add THAT to their state constitution, but delay, stall, and block any attempt to secure people's health
The Progressives have a plan, Republicans around me used to talk about how Hillary was going to implement it. Putting left agenda in schools and such. That must be why Republicans are against public education.
Yeah we're essentially NPCs
