so he doesn’t adhere to just one view but he will try to bring people together, hence his 50-state strategy. You have to raise money. That’s reality. Dean is what we need! I like how he wants younger people involved but realizes the old guard should stick around to provide some direction, etc.

Trump would not have dismantled our country, because Hil would be Prez. His 50 state solution, would have included Wis, Mich and ALL of Penn.

So much he would have done differently.

of how the "yell" was leaped on by some right wingers, "proving" he was crazy, when he was only caught up in the moment and let out a scream (not really a scream, that's being harsh) but a wonderful expression of happiness.
Fox runs it in a loop, chryons (sp?) run all day decrying Dean's "crazy" reaction. MSM picks up this National Enquirer shit and his campaign loses out.
Fox creating it's own news and then reporting their own sources is something taught in Journalism 101 is a no-no.
Just my humble opinion but Dr. Dean should return as head of the DNC. The fifty state plan was heading in the right direction.
I wonder what a Dean Presidency would have brought?
But that's behind us. The people must not relent; speak up, speak out, speak truth to "alternative facts." Give me a fucking break.
95% to 98% of republicans would vote to burn unicorns in front of the 3 million voters who voted illegally, if it prevented birth control. Social divisions and wedge issues have worked way too long.
It is time for a real leader, with the temperament and maturity to take the job.
Back to Dr. Dean. I believe his 50 state strategy along with his no nonsense approach to democratic values We need someone to lead us to electoral victories, beginning from the bottom, middle and top: congress, Senate and ultimately the presidency.

A great President. The media did him in when he was encouraged to yell.

The media has a lot to answer for.

Brian Stelter let Kelly Anne rant for 20 minutes this morning.

I am not violent but think if I had been close to her,I just might have popped her one. She is a vicious liar.

Mercer is her backer. Now,he is on the hook for back taxes.

He's not interested in taking the reins again (and besides, Judy would chain him to the breakfast table before she'd let him). But he IS willing to give advice and help mentor the next generation. It's an offer we shouldn't refuse.

I love President Obama too but he was very wrong to ignore Dr. DEan when it came to choosing his cabinent. Howard even asked to be appointed to HHS but was not considered. President Obama was very ungreatful as Howard was a big part of his winning the election.

Of Dean. I don't think he realized Dean's contribution to his win. Dean has never gotten the recognition he deserves for all of his hard work for Dems, mostly free.
