Though I'm not really sure what the point of this is

it would be a good experience until the party recoups and is ready for a real challenge.

It's also not wise to try and outguess chaotic systems.

My other point is that ALL presidents are novices when they assume office.

the fucking banks stealing us all blind. Would much rather do nothing than let the pillaging continue.

.. the outcome will be the same as all candidates are screened through the same filter.

Best case scenario is that the worst candidates win and the results wake Americans up.

Someone just crazy enough to act like an FDR Democrat.

We haven't hit rock bottom yet.

But by 2020, after the republicans have controlled the wh as well as congress for 4 years, we will be.

I'll probably be dead by then, so you can just pave over me and stand on my grave as a last resort. The country is going over the cliff. We've handed the keys back to the republicans. Kids! Buckle up!!

Bipartisan is a French word that, loosely translated, means bend over.

The Democrats need to differentiate themselves from the republicans. Being republican lite has run the party into the ditch.

The only way to differentiate ourselves is to FIGHT for what we believe in instead of rolling over. We have been the 98 pound weakling to the republican bully for too long and it has hurt us with the voters.
