Democrats Must Mix Positive Visions of America With Bush Bashing
George Bush and his administration are such a bunch of lying, corrupt, corporate dupes, selling out the nation that it is a natural reflex to want to point out the litany of wrongs they commit. But this is a mistake. We must not allow them to get away with their violations of Americans' trust. But we must also go the extra distance and express our positive visions of the future. If we keep on pointing out the Bush administration abuses while also keeping our heads held high, focused on making America a better, more hopeful place where all can be proud of a shared dream and set of goals, we will have a much better chance of sweeping Bush and his cohorts out of the Whitehouse.
I've written my own article: A Positive, Liberal Vision of The Future; 37 Ways Democrats Will Make the USA Better. Each candidate should have one of these. Actually. It's not a bad exercise for every Democrat to engage in. If enough of us do it, we might reach more concensus than is usual for a herd of cats.
