Do you think the "Big Tent" is still a good philosophy?
Or do you think we have let the foxes in the henhouse?

3. yes I do
The other side has excluded so many people based on this or that discrimination. If we Dems are truly that party that fights and opposes discrimination then we need to keep our big tent ideals going strong.

4. Affirmative
Or we can go to a DU purity test type party where we would lose every election from now on. No politician can satisfy the DU majority all the time, and shouldn't try.
