Reply #7: I disagree on the "moving to the center" thing. [View All]

You want to make the Dems the big-tent party? We need to move to the LEFT. Here's what the Republicans do: they talk up their popular issues, and keep quiet about the ones people don't like. "Traditional Values(tm)" -- they talk about that, but NOT about corporate control of the government.

We need to move to the left, predominantly on economic issues. Free health care for everybody. Free education. A good national pension system for retirees. THAT is what will win over some of the Southern white men.
