6. Until the Dems believe that the young people are the future, nothing will change.

We'll keep skewing to the right of center, and we'll keep losing. We have to make the young people know that we care about their future, and the future of the world. It's not going to happen if we keep putting forth the old guard, who end up voting with the Republicans because unity.

That doesn't work. It never worked. It's going to work even less now. I'm old, I've seen a lot come and go, and to be honest, I trust the younger generation more than I do my own. With the rise of MAGA, we lost our small edge that kept Dems in office. There's no way we can work with the crazy people. It's destroyed any potential for good America had. Now we have to change course, think of what works for the most people, not the rich, and get this country back on track.
