Funny thing about the Barack quote is that it probably describes the pseudo-woke centrist identity politics crowd better than the left.

This is the most meta-woke whining I've ever seen. The "crowd" is especially a nice touch. You must be the wokest S.O.B of all time if you're way more woke than that pseudo-woke "crowd." :D

23 people ran for the Democratic nomination. 19 of them are centrists. Bernie and Warren are liberals. Gabbard is troll. Willliamson is a Tralfamadorian.

Pretty sure we've tried that for the last 25 years, and as noted by Kep it hasn't worked. Those who ignore history...

Is she supposed to say I want to be a President for the Democrats and **** everyone else?
I mean yes we want to win but saying everyone else can go suck an egg doesn't seem like a very good strategy.

Being "president for all people" kinda goes without saying for the position, unless you're some kinda serious partisan hack trying to pull one over on the rubes, or some milquetoast centrist trying to seem clever.

Stop it you two. For the last time, I'm the arrogant one, trix is the idealistic one.

The correct soundbite is: I want to be the president for all reasonable Americans. Nazi scum need not apply.

I can hear the whining now. "Washington doesn't represent us. We, the "economically anxious" out here".

So you want to get in the gutter with them?
Fight like they do?
You'll lose...every time.
Scooby wants to hammer Klobuchar for saying she wants to work with the other side? It makes him no better than them in my eyes.
You can't just ignore half the country to win...not as a Democrat. It may suck it has to be that way...but that's how it is.
Start acting like Republicans...you'll lose to them.

As opposed to the successful "working with Republicans" strategy the party had from 2009-2016 which resulted in the party losing over 1000 seats in state legislatures, losing majorities in both the House and Senate, losing the White House.
 
Re: 2020 Democratic Challengers Vi: The Undiscovered Country

There's a difference between learning how to campaign effectively and governing as a principled and dedicated advocate for the people.

The Democrats still confuse these two things.

I am suggesting we campaign to win so that we can govern. Our ideals mean nothing if we keep losing to Nazis who promise their rubes a lollipop and a lynching.

Democrats can't ignore them while campaigning...that's my point.
