"This wonderful diversity we have going on in the party with minorities starting to claim a bigger stake in the political process is ultimately good for everyone. But for many Americans those just aren't their kind of issues. "
I do take issue with this statement. It's really offensive on face value. We don't only celebrate minorities claiming as they rightfully claim a bigger stake. We celebrate it because they are often more in tune with economic issues in their communities. You need to understand those issues are the exact economic issues you are talking about. Don't dismiss it as simply a bigger stake. It's the movement you want. It's the movement we want. It has a deep economic component to it that you are not seeing.
"One of the most important lessons of Obama was that when he spoke of the American people he always spoke inclusively."
Obama often talked sub-groups. This statement is not accurate and Obama spent eight years proving its inaccuracy. It was one of the most refreshing things about Obama.
"Not petty social vendettas."
If I didn't know any better I would say you should be run out of town for that comment.
You are an angel because you will read every reply to your op with your mind open(might be wrong on this one). Even if they are not very flattering. You are an angel because you help yourself in order to help others. You are an angel because you haven't always been dealt the best hand yet you are a great soul.
