2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Election stats and MSNBC: Black Voters Were ‘Offended’ by Dems Running from Obama [View all]freshwest
(53,661 posts)15. As well they should be. And we were warned early on. A hint of what was squandered since 2009:
Obama '...a democratic president, has stood by our democracy, making this a better country.'
Yes indeed. He believes in this country more than many ever did. Americans committed a great wrong to our POC brethren. They led the way for so many, despite all odds. They were our teachers.
Obama works for all of us and is hated from all sides. He knows how the words of the Founders have been interpreted by progressives like himself - a true liberal and progressive - anyone who can't grasp that is beyond help.
The best opportunity this nation had to overcome 30 years of increasing fascism has been wasted. He has been loyal to a nation who didn't deserve him and I will never forgive the haters.

OP
I do not think the next person running on the Dem side will get the record levels of support.
