60. Too bad some chic special interests dominate other special interests.
And the ironic thing is that the Democrats NEED one specific interest group, but quickly push them away to make room for all the chic special interests that are the rage with Hollywood celebrities, upper class 'progressives,' and rising ethnic groups eager for a political party.

The Democratic Party would NOT control Congress or the White House without working class Americans. What are the Democrats doing for working class Americans?

No, don't tell me how the Democrats have leveled off what the Republicans have been doing. Tell me what the Democrats have been doing to push back all the right wing policies that have pushed this country far to the right, with regards to working class Americans. Sure things aren't just leveling off, like the Clinton years, just so another hard right shove can take place again?

And please tell me what rules have been put in place for all these rebuilding America construction jobs, which would require those jobs go to U.S. Citizens. Do not tell me that those are jobs Americans won't do, because everyone knows that is BS. Hmm... How much you want to bet that a Chic Special Interest has been placed over working class in this country, and no laws or rules have been put in place? I know it's such a taboo subject to mention on the DU, but it's still working people of this country being pushed aside by a Chic Special Interest, and exactly why I will not vote straight Democratic ticket anymore. And yes, I happen to know from experience that there is no produce to be picked at construction sites, but construction workers have been dislocated, decimated, and destroyed by illegal workers. But hey, as long as the DU gets to cheer about the 'taking back our country' mantra, all is well for the DU.
