Nov 2017

Right now we need bold leaders who will do what the people want, not what their corporate masters want.

And I'm ok with hearing criticism of our candidates or infrastructure. That's how we improve. The repubs move in lockstep and always defend and protect the worst of their party (ahem, orange one). That's not what dems do.

Candidates come and go, party platform is why I'm a dem.
