Soul of a Democrat
Are people actually upset over discussing multiparty systems?
The conversation is helpful for understanding difference among Dems.
People are acting like a Dem didn’t just join the GOP a few wks ago. Other safe Dems actually fundraise for Republicans. That’s not “moderate.”

If you are fundraising for a Republican, are you a Democrat?
If you support using laws to restrict women's healthcare or stop abortion, are you a Democrat?
If you support racism, bigotry or xenophobia, in any form, are you a Democrat?
If you think its "extreme" to think someone that holds these views might not be Democrat themselves, are you a Democrat?
It's not in our Party Planks to "play to the middle" to morph into whatever independents want (or what someone thinks they want) in a given political cycle.
We are a political Party that supports and protects those that Republicans would happily crush to make an extra dollar.
We are the Democratic Party.
