Dems, reset message

Positive Mental Attitude, PMA, is the way to go after a disappointing election outcome. Instead of trying to recreate the wheel, stop and evaluate all that Democrats have accomplished throughout the years.

All roads leading to human rights were mostly fought for by brave leaders and Democrats, including Martin Luther King, who fought to end segregation; Harvey Milk, who fought for gay rights; and Gloria Steinem, who fought for equality for women.

Re-evaluate who you are and tell the message loud and clear. I think when the leaders in the Democratic Party became too wealthy, they lost their message. When money becomes the biggest issue, then you are really Republicans in Democrats’ clothing. Think about what was spent in the Georgia campaign; almost $30 million for more dumb ads on TV. Take that money and do something great in the state you are running and you will have millions of people seeing results along with loads of free advertising, much less endorsements.

Actions speak louder than words, and we could really use some action — education in rural communities and feeding the hungry, as there are plenty of people out there who need help. Tell what you would do with health care without being afraid someone will steal your ideas. Those are just a few of the many things you could be doing with all that money you raise. I am personally tired of donating for things we never see.
