This site will probably back one of the Democrat candidates for president. We hope to support Bernie Sanders but we realize it may be a long shot for him to win. So who else can we back? We need someone progressive, preferably someone who will support a medical care for all system. We may consider Elizabeth Warren. We realize that none of these people will support all of our positions. We need to make progress on expanding medical coverage. This country has punished poor people by denying them health care long enough. Obamacare (Affordable Care Act) was better than nothing and even that has been mostly destroyed by our idiot and chief, Donald Trump. Opposing Trump is a no-brainer. We would not be a left-leaning blog if we didn’t oppose trump. However, supporting a conservative Democrat (Republican light) is something we can’t support. Conservative Democrats are as much out enemy as the Republicans. To just stop having Trump destroy our country is not good enough. It is time to fight for progressive politics and this is not a good time to just retreat politically. We have had conservative presidents for the last 30 years, staring with Ronald Reagan. He pushed the country for to the right and it is time to push back. Democrats who complain we can’t have medical care for all are like the cock roaches who race below objects to hide from the light. They run for the safety of a dark hiding place. It is time to stop running and hiding.
