I have no interest to disparage Democrats... I do have interest to urge Us All to promote narrative.

Some may not like the urging, but in the climate of today, with the many things Republican have done, and Republican are doing, that attack "policy", and that policy attack they are doing continue to attack Democratic Values and Principles. That is what and why I continually urge people to "Generate Content, even it if keys off of existing articles, historical data and current event information".. To generate topic and subject matter that can assist new people with content as well as dialog, which they may well carry back into the public arena to promote Public Narratives. The more we get people talking who may not have been with the party, the more people we can attract to the party. The better for All of America. The Young people, want to understand, they want to know and they seek out information. We as adults should truly be willing to impart that unto them. We must remember, schools don't give enough education on Civics and Certainly not on Political matters and very little about the political sciences of Party, Nation and Platform and Agenda. "WE have to assist in proving that information"

Additionally, the benefit of Public Narrative also can help bolster peoples motivation to get up and get to the voting booths.

Yes, I address race in posting, and as Democrats we know race is a big issue in America, but we also see how racism is now amplified in the ways Republicans have embolden it in this country, and they have embolden it beyond borders. I urge Democrats, don't shy away from the discussion of race, and don't be dismayed about the investigation and revelations about race. We all know it has been in America since its inception. The platform for Democrats know that to address race and combat racism... is to the benefit of every thing that the Democratic Platform is driven to support and defend. Then, knowing so, we can't be timid, and we can't be shy.... and we can't wear thin skin... every time the subject of race comes up, or it speaks about white society in relations to racism, because we know in this country... it was no other ethnicity that promoted the racism that raged in this country. As democrats, that is something we cannot blind eye into not existing. Nor can we proclaim it was not driven and supported by white people.
The matter is, if you are a democratic white person, then fighting against racism is standard policy and platform agenda... not being upset because it addresses white people. As long as you know you are one who stands against it, then be willing to be vocal about that stand, be willing to challenge other white people who exhibit racism, or become one who challenges those who are enablers of those who are racist.
that is part of the whole that can't be extracted from the Democrats of Today's value basis.

Long ago, when the Former Southern Democrats were supportive of racism, who fought against Civil Rights Bills, but those Southern Democrats moved over to the Republican Party... and the Democrats of Today took up the stand against Racism....

Therefore ... be vocal, be expressive, create content and challenge the madness of the past... because as we see, Republican EVERYDAY, continue to try to push policies that have a core of racist elements, as well as elements that attack "the poor"...

Trump makes a stupid statement, that he wants America people to respond to him like N. Koreans respond to Kim.... We are not as Americans going into that level of madness. We saw how vile it was when Slavery exist, and we saw a 100 yrs of that vile during Segregation.

I write quite a bit... and it will continue to include the urging of us as Democrats to Create, Promote, Support and Project Narrative into as much of the public sphere as we can, by every means that we can.

We need "Massively Overwhelming Turn-Out in November.... We can't be shy about discussing anything that will help us as Americans become to be the nation that we have all potential and determination to continue our growth as a nation in being.

We should all be weary of hearing Right Wing Narrative and Trump Narratives and all his mouthpieces everyday, We NEED to dominate public narrative.... and as people... we are what it takes to make that happen.

Because to be the Party we are... We have to SUPPORT, PROMOTE AND DEFEND THE DEMOCRATIC VALUES... and that includes not being afraid to say so, stand so, express so... and make it known... that as Americans, the values the Democrats seek and pursue is American Values that make what is the Democracy we believe in, and these values are open unto all to embrace... We do it as members of the Democratic Party,....because we know, the values of the Republican Party is not the ideals we value and seek. We don't aspire to a Conservative Agenda, not to conserve the vile past, and not to conserve finances for biased things, but to use American finances to help ALL AMERICAN PEOPLE.

We know that as Democrats, we seek the long term stability... we also know that we develop policy.. not just claim to chase pipe dreams, as we understand that to move America forward, is a process... We may see things in independents concepts that are functional, but as a Democratic Party, independent also have to see that our Party has a platform and agenda, and its work in a process. Therefore, when independents bond with us.. then do so with understanding that a process is in place, and a process is always necessary when moving a nation forward. Any other party that seeks to bond with us... bring your ideals, but bring them with an understanding that "a process exist", and as Democrats we follow a process in how we move the nation forward.

We are not like Republican, who stomp and kick and attack the system of America... Democrats work within its system and make the process based advances, that move the Democracy Forward.

We will NEVER see Democrats supporting nor creating or engaging in any Voter Suppression, Voter Repression, and Nor trying to Disenfranchise Voters. Democrats respect the nations population... and understands that the values we support, has means and ways that consider All America People, not some game of trying to figure out how to get rid of people, like the Republicans are focused upon.
We have everything including the creative intellect of people.. to make Gods world suitable and sustainable for All Americans.

This world is far bigger than the confines of over priced Real Estate in major cities. All Trump can see is Greed, he has no concept of himself or the world of people beyond his measurements of money..... he does not understand, and he does not care to understand the humanity of such things as people and the world.

Wait until after November 6, then disparage whoever you want.

Before then, disparage the actions of Republicans.

Again, it's simple. Also intelligent, responsible and moral.

We need continual and dominant public narrative to dominate in the media and in the public conversations... We all should be urging and even challenging each other to promote that narrative. that's the object... PROMOTE DEMOCRATIC CONVERSATIONS, THAT CAN DOMINATE THE PUBLIC NARRATIVE.

We should know the value of that when we see how the lack of such, allowed Republican to Dominate the narrative and take the Congress and ultimately the Office of the President.

Therefore, it is imperative that we do what ever is necessary to "inspire, invigorate and challenge and even bring some to the anguish level of acknowledging their lack or low enthusiast stand, to rise up as democrats with their INDIVIDUAL responsibility to promote public conversation and push public democratic narratives and be relentless in doing so.

That is how and what must be done to put the "fire in the bellies and keep the fire in the bellies of Democrats as well as invigorate those who would be for Democrats to be aroused and determined to push and promote the Democratic Ideals and Agenda" that will lead and drive them to the polls. It is a fire that must be fed to keep the flame hot... as that is what keeps the passion for a cause alive and growing in its outreach that ultimately leads people to be determined to get out and vote.

Politics has never been for the faint of heart... so we must be not of faint hearts nor thin skin... for the challenges we face;
conviction is needed, and conviction is driven by understanding of the challenges one faces and being prepared to meet them, often takes men to be driven by many means... to stand up for what is believed.
