"A living wage. "It's also a moral issue."
"A fair day's wage for a fair day's work"--slogan of the AFL. "It's a moral issue."
"Kicking ass for the working class." "It's a moral issue."
"We can have democracy, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both."
"Say no to climate change! Save our clean air. Save our water. Save our children's futures."
"Be a PROUD American. Vote for our great America. Vote Democratic."
"Vote Democratic. We're not perfect, but they're nuts."
But I really don't think we can substantially improve our platform. Massage, update as the current conditions suggest, but WE are the party of the people, all of the people, the genuine Big Tent.
