“My experience is that most of the people who get really upset about the current leadership of our nations tend to be folks who haven’t spent much time either as an activist or as someone working for a candidate. What happens instead is they immerse themselves in on-line news and commentary.”
Who is this ‘we’ you speak of? I live in New York, and most of the people I talk to about politics consider Obama to be a Left candidate. Biden got 10 million more primary votes than Bernie, and he had four years to mobilize people.
This is America, and there are plenty of Union people voting for Trump and the GOP
The “we” I’m speaking of is every eligible voter, Left, Right, and Center. Voters do not actually have to constrain themselves to the names that the ruling class puts on the ballot.
So, you have no candidate who has an actual chance of beating Trump in the upcoming election. No political party, no ideology, no way of getting your message out, nothing but some nebulous ‘pie in the sky.’
You’re pretty much exactly what the article warns us about, an ill informed voter with no idea of how they system is set up.
It’s not an article, it’s some guy’s blog post. And where on earth did you get “no political party, no ideology” from? I’ve been very open about my politics on here. But my personal politics are completely irrelevant to a discussion about the ability of voters to not be led around by the nose by the DNC and RNC.
You’re a perfect ambassador of the DNC’s “shut up and vote for who we tell you to, you’re just idiots if you disagree with us” messaging that worked out so great in 2016! Truly changing hearts and minds.
So name the candidate you’re backing who has a great shot of winning in November.
