Nov 2014

They see the President protecting millions of immigrants from deportation, they see Native Americans stepping out saying they believe the President will respect their rights regarding land bequeathed to them by treaty centuries ago (by thwarting the Keystone pipeline from running through it), they see thousands of happy lgbt couples getting married and living normal lives, and they see the African-American community clearly behind our President.

They only voters Dems have not captured are the wealthy 1 percenters and super-rich, but we don't really them now. We do need a zealous plan to protect the integrity of our voting process though so that all of our votes are legitimately counted. We need to start yesterday strategizing about that.

Thanks for posting on my thread.

Sam
