(19,438 posts)6. So, let's initiate a comprehensive and well-publicized series of Democratic Town Halls.
Democratic access to citizens and a publicization of contrasts between Democratic and Republican Town Halls would go a long way towards cementing support for the next election cycle.
It's time to do this now, and continue it all the way through 2020.

Republicans lie.
