Beyond The Consensus
Democrats Agree on How to Play Defense, but What Are They Fighting For?

Dear Mr. Meyerson,
I just read your article on what it is the dems need to win and what are we fighting for. I was almost in tears with frustration within your second paragraph.
Can I please just stop you a moment?
Do you really want to win the nation?...It is not that difficult. It is in fact as simple as history. You WILL NEVER win leading a charge by explaining the polls.
Here is how the democrats can take over a nation.
NUMBER 1....There is no 'red state blue state' problem. The problem is the same it always has been. It is a southern problem.
The South is the very HEART of the nation. The south is also the poorest region in the nation. Therefore the south is STILL TO THIS DAY RIFE with poverty. The educational and election systems down here are not only a joke but a VERY BAD JOKE. That is EXACTLY how GW Bush stole Florida TWICE and OHIO. They used classic carpetbagger techniques that play out in the southern states EVERY election day. Want to know WHY the black man is still angry in the south?..All of those reasons.
It is a war of hearts and minds. History has never been addressed here. Corruption roams the streets here without ANY relief. The illiteracy rate is sky high. The masses are by large ignorant(isolated) and therefore the most repressed in the country. If you want to take this nation you MUST first take the south. Hell even the British knew that. Hopefully the dems will be more successful.
Example A...Louisiana... population of Louisiana is about 70% black. If 90% of blacks are dems adding in the white dems..HOW is it STILL a republican stronghold? The answer is, it is not, but if only the disenfranchised could speak.
Why does ALMOST ALL leaders in our party avoid the south?.. Well thats just too damn bad and till it changes you will not win the heart of the nation.
And Number 2)
When you send someone, send a hero. With Kevlar. A war for hearts and minds is STILL a war after all.
Martin Luther King was worshipped and killed for the exact same reason. He was not letting fear stop him from doing the right thing. The day they killed him the fight did not stop but it became less worth it. Less to anyone who does not have to actually live here, that is.
There is ONLY one thing that can counter the God-Guns-Gays mentality...And it coincidently is also the ONLY thing that EVERY SINGLE DEMOCRAT AGREES ON...Civil Rights.
I would LOVE to see a Republican try to oppose Civil Rights on MORAL grounds. Talk about falling down your own slippery slope. Whomever they send I hope he has the balls to march all the way to New Orleans and tell the truth about history and its aftermath.
Simply by listening to old speeches of Martin you will have your talking points..Now stick to them. Even if they start shooting.
I am very sorry if I have offended you by sticking my own opinion into it but as a southern democrat you guys are driving me nuts. It is not REALLY that complicated until you start considering what the polls mean. If you want to win then pick the fight where you can use your greatest advantage. Our party was FOUNDED on civil rights.
It is not AN ISSUE..it is the ONLY ISSUE.Everything we fight for and against can be defined by them.
And by the way, in case you are wondering no, I am not black. I think democrats have a FATAL misjudgement of where the battlefield truely is. Its the same place where heros died . And our leaders fear to tread.
Anytime you wanted to find it again, you could. Just come south.
Thank You,
Christy Cole
