The left knows they can’t win on policy in a healthy economy.
So their best hope is to get the voters motivated to be part of a “moment” for which they can pat themselves on the back.
First black president was one. He was an unqualified dolt, but his winning gave so many airheaded moderates the feelz. First female president was to be another, but thankfully she was so unlikable that she lost.
So now they are trying first (openly) gay president.
The left must have victim class candidates so that any policy criticism can be nullified by skinning the racist, misogyny or homophobe / islamophobe card
