Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumOnce daily, preferably while reading here, stop for just a moment and repeat:
"I will vote for and support WHOEVER the Democratic nominee may be!"
Let that be our common anchor when the primary seas get choppy.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO!

(9,897 posts)No matter who it is or what the ticket is comprised of...as long as we are not running Jared and the Ice Princess as Democrats, then I am voting for the nominee and their chosen running mate, period.

(1,178 posts)My son turns 18 next month and is already registering to vote. He also encouraging his large circle of friends to register and informing them how to do it. All these are great kids. I have no doubt how they will vote. I have listened (not eavesdropping) to many of their discussions while they are at our house, they hate tRump. These kids give me a lot of hope.
Vote Blue no matter who!

(9,897 posts)Not only in elections but in the very real fight to SURVIVE once Climate Change spirals out of control in their lifetimes...
I used to believe I would be dead long before the worst effects, but that was just another lie fobbed off on the public (that we still had DECADES if not until 2100+ for the worst to happen)...I have started asking them why they are NOT in the streets every day DEMANDING action and changing the narrative around the issue.
Climate Change is real, it is man-made and it WILL kill BILLIONS if immediate, serious and sustained action is not taken.
They do not have DECADES...they have about 100 MONTHS (maybe)...after that, it is going to be a shitshow that may make Trump look like a walk in the park (but will absolutely be worse if they allow his ilk to remain in power long term).
The time to act was 30 years ago, but like the meme I saw earlier today...if the best time to start was in the past, the 2nd best is NOW.

(10,836 posts)VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO is not merely a catchy phrase. It's a scream for national survival. We have finally caught up and passed any and all hyperbolic warnings of preceding elections:
Vote as if your lives depended on it. Because they do.
If we do not get this right in 2020, we may not have another chance to correct the error. It's that critical, that dangerous.

(9,116 posts)If you're posting on Democratic Underground, it stands to reason you're fairly committed to the Democratic party. This is some next-level cultish behavior, folks. Just relax.

THAT is "support".

(9,116 posts)I'm not going to pretend to be in possession of the data. Again, if you're here it stands to reason you're engaged politically. Most, I imagine, did something.

(7,947 posts)and saving the president $ for when a nominee is known. This latest poll indicates there isn't that much difference in the top three against Trump. Not sure what that portends.

(3,282 posts)Winning the presidency and not taking back the Senate could be every bit as disastrous as losing the presidency. Got to show Mitch McConnell the door in no uncertain terms!

(45,806 posts)DT has done via a scratch of his pen! The Senate is second most important to replace Judges & pass the good things the House sends over. (assuming of course we retain control of the House. I sure HOPE this time the Congress uses their time in Control to PASS a lot of the things we've been promised over the years.

KY_EnviroGuy
(14,492 posts)to very quickly lose the bitterness of a primary loss, buckle down and immediately fund and campaign for our eventual nominee instead of staying on the pity pot right up to election day.
We must remember that Republicans almost always rally behind their nominees very strongly (no matter how awful they are) due to their authoritarian, lemming-like nature.

(58,785 posts)and vote for Gabbard, and the rest of the ballot Democrat, if she was the only alternative to voting for Trump/not voting (effectively the same thing), even knowing the plan was defeat.
But this is this universe. I'm wondering if our president will have a Democratic senate as well as house to work with AND how many more state governments will turn all or partly blue.
