You don't think Bernie and other Dems at over 130 town halls across 50 states haven't been listened to? That they aren't bringing right wingers toward the left's efforts?

We both got on DU in the same year. One would think that if you've been on DU daily, you'd have learned more than what you're saying. If not, then maybe you just don't want to leave your feeling world and move around in the fact world. Good luck with that.
