It's the slow march to the left, are you saying we haven't moved left in the past 20 years?
Socially, absolutely. Economically, absolutely not.

All your side cares about is the social aspect of politics. That's the problem. The social side of the equation is equally as important, but you're not concerned with the economic side. The fact that 50% of Americans earn less than $30K/year, or 76% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Bill Clinton instituted DADT, cut welfare and was "tough on crime" which resulted in far more minorities serving time. Special interests have complete control of both political parties in this country. Only 6 members of congress accept no corporate bribes or super PAC money. Congress currently holds a 9% approval rating.

The Democratic party has unequivocally moved to the right when it comes to economic policy since they were destroyed by Reagan and the Christian right in the 1980s. There is no viable party in this country that stands up for workers rights or poor or middle-class blue collar people. We have two corporate parties who represent corporate interests. That's why wages were higher in 1968 than they are in 2017 and why Democrats didn't demand a single payer system of healthcare when they had the political power to actually pass it.

i hope they practice on dumbfuck white boys like you who say black people have "a herd like mentality".
You're intolerant. You won't actually listen to a video by black people about why they want a certain candidate representing them- because it's not YOUR candidate. Instead you just spew nasty irrelevant bullshit in yet another attempt to discredit them.

You're a lot closer to being racist than you're willing to admit.

go ahead and keep calling abortion and racial discrimination social issues and then keep wondering why you can't win a democratic primary composed of mainly women and people of color.
How is this NOT a racist statement?

I don't care what color they are, they have every right to vote for the candidate who best represents THEM.

No one named Clinton is that candidate.

Maybe you need to learn that until you can manage to get a candidate who DOES represent people of color- all colors, not just white or black- your candidates aren't going to win, either.

Edit: meme is misleading

I think there are some Democrats that favor their big donors' interests over the interests of average Americans and middle to low income Americans. Civil Rights and Economic Rights go hand-in-hand IMO.

I said all people have a herd like mentality. There's a clear and obvious trail to follow where anyone can trace back to exactly what I said, and exactly how I meant it. Your repeated continuation that I insist only black people and not any other 'color' of people have a herd like mentality MAKES YOU LOOK INCREDIBLY BAD. Why would you continue to do that to yourself?

Even this quoted post is racist

Who says something like "white boys" in their regular vernacular? That's extremely telling

i think americans are falling for stupid shit. this graphic is not only false, but the vote was on a non-binding resolution.

each and every one of them voted in favor of an actual amendment for lowering prescription drug prices.

You know, I had a feeling that meme was misleading as the source has mislead me before. I literally have to fact check everything from them, it's bullshit.

Why the fuck are leftist groups smearing Democrats? Are they doing it intentionally or are they just stupid/bad at their job?

"if you just watch this video about rawn pawl you'll TOTALLY understand why rEVOLution freedom freedom liberty freedom"
WTF? You're talking out your ass. You used to make sense. I'm disappointed in you.

It was a campaign ad for Bernie about why black people should vote for him, clearly made BY black people. But you don't care about the needs of black people. Maybe you're the racist here.

If you're going to criticize, at least use facts or you're just another reactionary.
