I made a prediction quite a while ago that I dont want to come true.

I dont want what the teabaggers did to the GOP to happen to the DNC, muting their power by demanding impossible things.

Lets hope my prediction will NOT come true. Lets hope all Democrats see the BIG picture and work together!

There is not one single issue the "far left" as they are called wants that I wasnt advocating long before most of them knew to advocate. And when the political ability to do those things exist, I will be pushing for it.

Universal Health Care
No tuition for higher learning
Minimum wage equal to what would be $15 in today's dollars - or more
Nationalizing ALL energy such as oil, gas, electricity
Increased SS and Medicare spending
Increased food assistance spending
Simpler process to become a citizen
