2. Renewing the American Dream? That sounds too much like MAGA

One person's dream is another person's nightmare. There are no "good old days" or erstwhile "American dreams" worth renewing. There are far too many people in this nation that struggle with discrimination every day. Any slogan that the DNC chooses should emphasize hope, change and diversity with an eye towards a future that's devoid of any hint of nostalgia for the past.

We never want to renew yesterday's dreams. That's what the deplorables do. We need new dreams for a new American future, free of yesterday's nightmares.
