In reply to the discussion: In 18 years since Naders run, what has been accomplished by attacking the Dem party from the left? [View all]Gothmog
(144,939 posts)I have been far more involved in politics than you have including going to the National Convention and being on several committees at state conventions. If your proposals are so popular then why have every candidate who used them under performed compared to Clinton's results or lost out right. Even in an all white state, the Sanders platform failed even when the GOP candidate assaulted a reporter (the GOP candidate won election day vote). I want to win in 2018 and I do not think that your platform will work in the real world.
Go ahead and advocate your platform and I am also allowed to disagree with this platform. I note that Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are not considering your platform for the party as a whole which is a good thing in my opinion. I am also amused that you are too scared to post on the thread discussing whether Hillary Clinton lost because she went too far to the left. If you really believe in your platform, go defend it on that thread.
