2010 and helped us lose the house and state legislatures...a massive state gerrymandering was the result and Obama was shut down for the rest of his two terms, this is why we get nothing in terms of policy . And then the anti-Obama sentiment seen even on this website in 2014 resulted in losing the Senate and ultimately a SCOTUS nominee. Clinton too lost the house in 1994. And played on the GOP turf for the rest of his term. So if the policy doesn't suit the left left and often greens, they have only themselves to blame. They pride themselves on holding the party accountable never acknowledging the fact this causes us electoral losses over and over. And this conduct sabotages any meaningful progress on policy.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
