    And American voter’s first job is to responsibly inform themselves so they can make informed decisions come election time.

    The Democrat party’s voting history is there for anyone to peruse through. I’ll save you the trouble and inform you that it is FULL of votes in favor of the lower/middle classes.

    If the Democrat party fails to advertise themselves effectively, that voting history is still there, waiting for non-lazy Americans to inform themselves with. If Americans choose not to do that, then they are failing at their civic duty as citizens in a democracy. And now our democracy is in serious jeopardy because of their laziness.

      You win elections with the electorate you have, not the electorate you want.

      Clearly people are not responsibly informed and do not make informed decisions. Democrats need to account for the fact that most Americans are idiots if they want to control anything except a few states and cities.

      There are too few non-lazy Americans for them to rely on them for victory.
