23. "LOSING ever since" is dead wrong. Goal is steering RW Dems from Fascisim!
You sound like a logical pundit, and best of luck in helping the party. The Republican Revolution may begin it's downturn, starting in 2006. AAR and Pacifica and the ravaging of Dan Rather (plus 4 top journalists) and the consolidation of Media seem to be meaningful.
FDR attended Social Security, integration of the miltary, huge attention to government domestic projects combating the great depression, and the income taxes to pave the way.
Clinton was a NAFTA proponent which has ruined our manufacturing industries. Clinton never followed through with a national health care program, now in pitiful condition-40% w/o insurance.
Clinton Bombed countries that didn't invade us (Bosnia/Iraq/??), FDR resisted WW2 until Dec7,1941 when our Imperialist military Naval Base on foreign soil (Hawaii) was bombed by the Imperialist Japanese, killing 2335 U.S. killed, 1778 wounded.
Clinton & FDR were both Imperialists, but with quite a different personna, I believe.
Pre-emptive attacks are now a reality, thanks in no small part to media ownership issues that suppress wide dispersion of counter-Imperialism opinion.

Battling the likes of the neo-cons, with the clout ($$), the stamina and their media access advantages will still require the integrity of the voices from the left, and shutting us out will doom the Dems to Repuke-lite status, and local political influence rather than national dominance.
The Dems have had little restraint against the military-industrial-media onslaught that has throttled the throat of liberty, and much more needs to be done. persevere
