A) Have the candidate the most voters prefer to be leader, based on their personal qualities, announced policies (including party policies), and similar factors.

B) Be preventing the candidate in (A) from winning and someone else winning by suppressing the vote, not counting votes equally, cheating, having a propaganda lying media machine, and having great amounts of money only the few most wealth and powerful can spend greatly affect the outcome.
 
Their answer whether they admit it or not is something along the lines of "The right way to win an election is with a Republican." They literally think you are evil and that what you represent is destroying the fabric of society. Like they no shit believe that. They're not going to play fair.
 

Of course A is...not to mention vet your candidates for a primary very well and start kicking fkrs out of the party that are destroying it.
 

LOL this made me laugh.... good one!



... But I pick "C"

C) Only allow the polls to be open during kindergarten 'quiet time' that way all of the Democrats will be fast asleep.
 
The differences between the two parties are large and it seems unlikely the parties can compromise. This is too bad because I don't believe the average american is nearly as far apart as the party leadership.

You think that's Republicans' answer to the question?
 
Oh definitely B. Especially if it means Dems get elected .
 
Why ask Republicans the question?
In the recent debate, Mr. Biden said flat out he wasn't going to answer a question regarding court packing, he declined to elaborate on his vision on a "green new deal" and how it would distinguish between what folks like AOC and Sen. Markey are talking about, and all he has said in general about COVID is to wear a mask. Say what you wish about Trump and policy, he is not a cipher as compared to Biden.
Meanwhile, Trump is censored on social media, the Dems (at least in 2016) spent more in campaigning for president and of course the stories of ballot issues are coming out traditionally Democratic areas of the country.
Perhaps your efforts would be better placed elsewhere.

Craig, there was a time when it was....that time of course is long ago...it is why so many folks are Never Trumpers and voting for Biden. The Democrats picked a good candidate in that he has a history of being in the middle of the aisle. Yes, some of the Bernie supporters threw a fit and some others were groaning because he is not a younger candidate. However, we have videos of people like flip flop Lindsey saying very good things about Biden and many moderates have long memories and remember that Biden hasn't been a partisan hack. Some of us have fatigue about it all and want to do something different. Honestly, I would like my party back...but that is not an option...so, now I am a Democrat.
