You are correct, the ship of state needs to turn to the left as it did after the Great Depression and I believe and hope that is what we are seeing.

I believe that the '18 shift of the House with the election of so many young women is a clear indication of a hopeful trend. Firebrands like Liz Warren, Katie Porter, AOC and others make me hopeful.

As a 70+ year old man I have come to the conclusion that we need a Constitutional Amendment to require two complete and intact chromosomes to even run for a political office much less occupy one. No more Ys and no more testosterone poisoning in power.
