Thank you for your answers. "Common sense" tends to be a bit more rare during primaries, and so I appreciate that you added it here, and in a focused, easy to understand way. Well done!

The one area that I both agree and disagree is your last sentence. It is definitely true for those who are comfortable. They may be concerned about those issues that should concern Democrats, but they tend to be less likely to embrace changes in their own status and daily lives. But there are a lot of us who aren't comfortable, for a wide range of reasons. We'd like to not have the little we have taken from us, of course, but we are convinced there needs to be serious systematic changes -- and not simply cosmetic changes.

Again, thank you!
