Why I support the Democratic Party -- YES WE CAN

If you believe that the government should protect its citizens' rights to breathe clean air, clean water and government's responsibility to believe in science to reverse the existential threat of climate change then you should support the Democratic Party; if you believe government has the obligation to protect its citizens from predatory lending and the excesses of Wall Street greed that lead to the Great Recession of 2007 then you should support the Democratic Party; if you believe it's government's obligation to protect ALL its citizens' right to vote then you should support the Democratic Party; if you are against Republican gerrymandering fixing districts to suit them then you should support the Democratic Party; if you believe in the earned safety nets of Social Security and Medicare with Medicaid to help the poor then you should support the Democratic Party. If you believe health care is a right then you should support the Democratic Party.  If you believe in all the humane things government can and should do besides wage inhumane war then you should support the Democratic Party. 

The Republican Party now is the Party of white supremacy and hate.  If you think human beings do better when we all work together in diversity and when we cultivate empathy for the hardships of others then you should support the Democratic Party. If you believe that truth and justice are the American way then you should support the Democratic Party as the ONLY vehicle to advocate for and achieve the aforementioned policies.

If you believe in all of these human rights then crush the Republican Party in special elections now and in the November election of 2018 because if you do not then all the horrendous Trumpian changes accrued by executive orders and judicial hate designed to obliterate those human rights, the middle class, and the poor will be permanent.  Republicans will send this nation into an oligarchy of white hate taking all of its wealth leaving nothing for you. Unconstitutional policy will remain permanent and the answer to Benjamin Franklin's admonition -- "We have a Republic IF you can keep it" will be we could not.  Do not let this happen.

Think YES WE CAN keep the Constitutional separation of powers Republic our Founders bestowed upon us and return us to a more just nation the world, before the mendacity of Trump, used to
envy!

RESIST as if your life and those lives you love depend on it because they do.  YES WE CAN!
