2. Well, I'm guessing if we don't focus on the 2012 elections,
there may be NO 2020 elections.

4. I'm going to guess you're joking, but if you are serious...
..and you are that disenchanted with President Obama, then concentrate henceforth on downline elections. Start getting Dems or progressives elected to school boards, utility boards, city councils, mayorships, state assemblies, state senates, judiciaries, as well as the US Congress.

Dear Greens: if you ever want to be taken seriously as a nationwide progressive party, you all need to go forth and do likewise. Don't bother running for the White House. Work on building your brand and your base. The Executive Branch will eventually come.

9. You guessed right, and I SHOULD have added a sarcasm smilie!
But some of the MINDLESS Obama-bashing here has driven me around the bend! And IRRESPONSIBLE too! Google almost anything of consequence, and most of the top hits are from DU. Freek Republic must be in hysterics over some of the stuff they see here!

6. I'm more interested in the 2060 elections.
What are your top 2060 picks? That election will be all about radiation poisoning. Candidates will be asked to take a side: is saw dust a vegetable or grain?

13. And is kindergarten really necessary, since most of the population drops
out of school in the first grade.

We will not have to worry about 2020.

14. There are no "true" Dems left, The only way to save our country
is to let it fall into true anarchy. The country must fall into complete Fascism before we can have a real revolution. It doesn't matter how much blood is shed or how many people suffer in the meantime. Only then can the True Honest Left raise a Utopian Paradise from the ashes of the failed Corporatist regime that we allowed America to become.

Or, we could vote.
