at the 75% to 80% rate or higher, but we never ever seem to do more than list them on our platform. For years it's been known that the public supports the Democratic positions on issues, the problem is we do nothing about those issues, and now the Republicans are stealing some of them. There's a bill in the senate now to raise the min to $15, it's not our senator who introduced it. We need to take back our issues and run with them.
All Sides has a similarity hub https://www.allsides.com/similarity that lists 700 issues we agree on to some extent or another. You can set the parameters for specific subjects and the most agreement to close to 50% or by what year the poll was taken. Sources are also rated from strong liberal to strong conservative.
We can agree amongst ourselves, and more than half of Republicans can agree with us, but if a strong enough interest group and if the wealthy don't agree, we have a problem. Also while some of our leaders are very good on these issues they are also strongly supportive of other issues that are in the 20% or less range, and it's very difficult to get anyone to support a candidate who is associated with fringe issues that no one likes.
