In reply to the discussion: Surge in U.S. Concern About Immigration Has Abated [View all]ancianita
(41,183 posts)Yes and the jump has been for several reasons, imo...
1. WE Democrats won the messaging.
2. The public pays attention to extremist messaging and rejects it.
3. The public's Internet/tv/reading/local youth have taught them more, alleviated their doubts and reinforced their conscience.
It's leverage, yes, but it's a clear signal that we need not belabor the obvious.
Nor do will we have to wake the public up to the damage that's been done in government and society.
So for campaign messaging we need candidates that absolutely publicly pledge:
a. to vote yes to every bill that fixes what's been wrecked -- our own project 2026 and 2028 -- in govt and society
b. to vote to rescind Citizens United if elected as part of a House/Senate majority
c. to vote for a comprehensive election security and immigration bill
d. to legally harden Congress's and the Judicial Branch's enforcement power in relation to the Executive Branch
Democrats must always, always remind the public that Americans' not voting is what got us here,
and that if they're over 18 it's their adult duty to their families and future generations to vote now for a trifecta so that this country re-stabilizes for at least eight to sixteen years.
Thanks for your important post.
