Huh? Im a Democrat and I always believed the Dems should focus on economic and social equality.
The GOP plays with identity issues (God, Guns, Flag, etc).
The Dems need to stay away from that and get back to the populist roots and focus on the working folk. That is what made the Dems a successful party in the past.
That's all.

Why be antagonistic toward powerful people in the core jargon of the party plank? Would honesty of language, or perhaps even inclusiveness, work better than emotional resonance and tribalism?
