Former President Barack Obama, the last Democrat to captivate the party’s base, got on the phone.

Even after flattened-bernie got ratfucked and became an open zionist to curry favor, they're still erasing him

Run a charismatic person in his 40s, promising sweeping changes to a decaying status quo against an aging opponent promising the maintenance of that status quo, win by a landslide

Never do it again and run wealthy, old-money-connected geriatrics that keep doing out of touch bullshit and promise nothing will change

I've said it before, if a presidential candidate promised universal healthcare or said they'd line CEOs up to be shot in order of descending net worth they'd win a supermajority.
