America is an idea—one that has endured and evolved through war and depression, prevailed over fascism and communism, and radiated hope to far distant corners of the earth. Americans believe that diversity is our greatest strength. That protest is among the highest forms of patriotism. That our fates and fortunes are bound to rise and fall together. That even when we fall short of our highest ideals, we never stop trying to build a more perfect union. When the American people go to the polls this fall, we will be choosing more than a candidate. Character is on the ballot in this election. The character of our President, yes, but more than that: the character of our democracy, our society, and our leadership in the world.

I think they have overcompensated with the diversionary tactics. They have made such an utter hash of things that people are going to want to see something that they can make sense of. This document details the myriad ways in which the Democratic Party has lost its way. That is a sad state of affairs, but it is also one that people can make sense of.
No one in the USA gets to have fun. No one. The beatings will continue until we have absolute power over you.
America is an idea
________________________________________________
It’s not just an idea. It’s a nation. It’s sovereignty is not to be handed over to any authority outside its borders. When the Dems (and many Republicans remember this), they’ll be fit to rule again.

Perversion just jumps out at you.
We’ll grab it, keep it, make good use of it.
Grab it and make good use of it. Biden’s website is a mess but this is something you can nail down.
pls post it
I did, it’s there, grab it
God help American if the House, Senate, and Executive branch become Demoncrat and the idiots actually try to implement that platform.
Straight from the democrat national committee 2020 platform:
“Democrats will enact universal background checks, end online sales of guns and ammunition, close dangerous loopholes that currently allow stalkers, abusive partners, and some individuals convicted of assault or battery to buy and possess firearms, and adequately fund the federal
47
background check system. We will close the “Charleston loophole” and prevent individuals who have been convicted of hate crimes from possessing firearms. Democrats will ban the manufacture and sale of assault weapons and high capacity magazines. We will incentivize states to enact licensing requirements for owning firearms and extreme risk protection order laws that allow courts to temporarily remove guns from the possession of those who are a danger to themselves or others. We will pass legislation requiring that guns be safely stored in homes. And Democrats believe that gun companies should be held responsible for their products, just like any other business, and will prioritize repealing the law that shields gun manufacturers from civil liability.”
The only way people are going to know is if people talk about it, and I don’t think we can count on the Democrats to do that when they are so busy “telling” rather than “showing,” such as with #Empathy while they double down on the ever increasing categories of voters that qualify for “deplorable” status.
IMO, the Democrats need to be left with only the voters this document indicates that they plan to actually represent.
the “America is an idea” is their platform? OK thx... not much of a platform now is it?
i thought it was the opening paragraph of an article or something 8^)
Click on the link, it’s a document. There’s plenty of unpopular expensive stuff in there. They very clearly have a vision. Too bad that vision has far more to do with ruling than it does with representing.
I read the first seven pages which is their Preamble and not one mention of God. At the end they offer a prayer, but I don’t know to whom.
I have a strong feeling the remaining 83 pages will not mention God either.
Once I read to this absurd phrase, there was no reason to read further...
Like when you walk across a yard and step in a pile of dog poop and it's best to just turn around and walk elsewhere... Unless you are in San Francisco...
