The March yesterday.....

[boston bean]

Yesterday I posted that I wish the speeches would stop so we could see the magnitude of the march.

I for one watched the speeches and started to become a little aggravated when they kept saying hang on people, hang on, we're almost done speaking and then we'll march.

Well after 1 and 1/2 hours of that it was frustrating.

I do believe that if there was a more generalized focus of what brought people there, like PEACE and the Lying Bastartd in the White House, more people would have related.

I really don't know much about ANSWER, but I do understand their issues, but if you didn't understand, they were talking about some peoplem, places and events I am sure 85% of America has no idea about.

I do believe it watered down the message and kept the focus off the main reason for the March.

If Democrats, Progressives, and Liberals, can't find a general message to bring to the people so they can ralley behind it we will remain lost.

But in the end, I do believe it was a fabulous march and wish I could have been there myself. It's a beginning and maybe next time we can come out with a clear, but simple message.

That is one of the main problems with the democratic party, but which also keeps me involved in it. We can see many sides of an issue, there is not black and white, just gray. But if the party portrays itself in the gray area, people can't and won't jump on board. I dont' think we should become restricted or see issues in only black and white, but we need to portray a solid message. A simple one.
