Since we no longer care about doing the right thing, let's talk about math and black women

25. Let's be clear: No one Democratic demographic group is more important than another.

Some are larger than others. Still others vote more reliably than others. But each and every Democratic party member is as important as another.

If the Democratic Party starts taking orders from one demographic group, regardless of the consequences, the others will go shopping for someone else to vote for, who represents their interests.

We all belong to the Democratic Party because its platform represents all of our interests. As a white woman, I also vote for measures that affect black women, white men, black men, Hispanic men and women, low earners, wealthy Democrats, old ones and young ones, seniors and babies...everyone. Fairness to each and every group and person is important.

If one demographic group wants to make the Democratic Party its own personal party, they may get what they wish. Then, good luck with that, as the other groups leave. Whether the group is white or minority, female or male, old or young.

People vote for candidates because those candidates serve the voter's interests. They don't vote for them out of the goodness of their hearts. It's a quid pro quo...I vote for you, and you recognize my vote and represent my interests. ALL the voters, of every demographic, do that. The party represents them all.
