3. Seems to me like this is the consensus.

Obviously, we want to see a Democrat return to the Presidency---for the nation's sake, primarily!

Given the political circumstances, the electoral college's alignment works against Democrats. Realistically, it won't be changed anytime soon, as much as we would like to see that happen!

I just think that right now, looking at independent voters and Hispanics, it doesn't seem like those two important voting blocs appear ready to elect any woman President.

Any Democrat who is serious about winning in 2028 must perform better with those two groups and the overall voter turnout must be larger.

If anyone sees a way that is magically going to change by 2028, please share your insights with us.
