If Obama had posted this INSANE shit on Sunday morning, they would be opening up the doors of Congress

32. We are talking on different planes -- two ships passing in the night.

Naturally candidates need some flexibility to adjust the weight of the various elements of their pitch to the audience, but they must not give up the power of a strong unified message. It might not immediately make sense to talk about day care at a senior center, until one realizes that most of the people in the audience have children or grandchildren who are struggling to bring up their families in a healthy way.

Maybe a college campus is not an obvious place to discuss why billionaires should be paying a higher tax rate, because many of the students have dreams of becoming billionaires themselves. But we need to take that opportunity to educate the students WHY we need a fair and equitable society with the most successful people paying their fair share, to maintain the system that allows them to become so rich. We can do that while we also make the case for the commons: parks, transportation systems, arts, architecture, health care, national strategies for R&D, and so on.

No, I don't agree that we should only talk with farmers about pig shit and fertilizer. I know many people living in largely agricultural communities who understand a lot more than pig shit. Our approach with each candidate being a free agent is insulting, condescending, and IT HAS NOT WORKED. We have steadily lost power ever since FDR, and now we are living in hell COMPLETELY out of power.

WE CREATED TRUMP. WE GAVE HIM THE OPENING BY REFUSING TO LEAD ON A NATIONAL LEVEL.
