They did not put her where she is, though they may imagine they did, and she will gain much by having such people as enemies.

The right will stop at nothing and have securely infiltrated the 'left" of the party

SOMEONE on Twitter once called me a Chinese Agent, causes at the time I had a gf who was Chinese in her birth line but she was just as American as you and I...(I am part Native Hawaiian so Polynesian, whether that's American enough...I DON'T KNOW.) I AM ALSO of Japanese decent.. so being CALLED a CHINESE AGENT..is ignorant at best, and yeah...its bordering on Racist...

I have been here a while. People Know me here.. I ran the Asian group, until it seemed like no one paid attention to what we were trying to do there, like EDUCATING the public about ASIAN CULTURE, music, art.. food.. all of it..

Kimiko Asahina, my friend, started this, till she was run off the website by a bunch of Bernie Bros who made her life horrible by sending nasty messages to her, which she told me could happen to me..and I told her I have a thicker skin than she does... and would not let any troll effectively force me off DU.

Over at that "other" website, there were nasty comments about me, saying I was a fake, didn't know shit about anything or them just coming out with "SHE IS JUST A CHINK, DON'T WASTE TIME ON HER..."

so I have been a LOYAL Democrat all my life, and think about this, if I was a Republican I would probably end up being a TROPHY because I would be one of the few Minorities who supported his HIGHNESS'S FAT ASS. The only Asian I know who supports TRUMP is that Filipino bitch on Fox News... Michelle Malkin and she is NUTS. SHE probably loves the dictator in the Philippines too... Duarte..

So Yes, I believe in Democratic Ideals. I am not Communist Chinese nor as someone else called me, a North Korean...nor any other spy..

And if anyone on DU thinks so..than have me removed. I will wait.

Fortunately, the "on-line left" is not the Democratic party or even the progressive movement. I see AOC's maturity as a politician as a positive.

Maybe the first Female President, though it be nice not having to wait too long for our first Female President, in all our HISTORY, there has never been a female President, it will be an "Its about fucking time" moment. Seems like lately we been last on everything including this.
