Please quit threatening to not vote, or vote for a third party candidate!

98. If you want to clean up the party run for precinct delegate.

Then try and get to district delegate. From there state delegate. Then national delegate.

That is how one changes the direction of the party. NOT BY ELECTING A SPECIFIC PRESIDENT.

Just ask Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson. Well, maybe not Falwell. However, that is how the Moral Majority and the Christian Coalition changed the direction of the GOP beginning in the late 70's. Unfortunately here we are 45 fucking years later and democrats do not seem to understand how the parties work.

I've served my time as delegate and got to the state convention as district delegate. It's a tough environment but if one has enough like minded people in the delegation one can absolutely make a difference.

In other words changing the direction of a party happens from bottom up, not top down. That is how it is structured.

We've got a lot of work to do. Unfortunately we don't have thousands of fundamentalist churches to organize around. That is why the GOP is so fucking barking mad today. And we ignore them at our peril.

So I am going to vote straight Democrats in every election.

on edit: correction: Falwell formed the Moral Majority. And additions.
