So the issue with this thinking, is that those percentages will still be there no matter what candidate it is. I do agree with you that people generally prefer leftist policies. I'm a progressive, and would love a Bernie platform to be the policy foundations for the country.

The issue is, if you're going to voluntarily cede 2-4% of your electorate just because they are a woman, why not run someone who's a guy who has the same policy legs.

The declaration of independence literally tells the people to take apart a government that is no longer working for the people.

Not that any of the republicans in congress actually have read such documents.

Totally agreed.

These people literally are destroying the pre eminent power and completely usurping centuries old historical power hierarchies seemingly for the benefit of shorting the markets on their own whim.

As if those dollars they earn will be worth anything when hyperinflation hits.

Two very qualified women have been beaten by the worst presidential candidate in the history of the country.

In what world do you think the answer is running another woman?

I love AOC. I think she is the future of this country. But she would be much more effective in the senate. Let Gavin, Walz, or someone else who is in the white dude category be on the top of the ticket.

Is that fair? No. But do you want to be fair or do you want to win elections?

So here's the fucking thing.

The crisis is already here. Go take a peak at the ports on the west coast right now. Go look at business forecasts.

This man systematically destroyed a working economy in a business quarter.

The repercussions of these actions are going to be felt for at least a decade.
