Yesterday Kos put up a diary and in it he said something to the effect that Democrats are still discussing a unified message. Fortunately, I have it!
Whenever anyone asks me why I am a Democrat, I reply simply, that I’m in favor of a Level Playing Field.
Who can seriously argue with that statement in any way that doesn’t prove that they are biased, or racist, or misogynistic, or xenophobic?
Who can possibly argue that they want to play the game on a slanted playing field?
When it comes to all aspects of what is fair and just, a Level Playing Field is what is needed.
When one group is oppressed, and another is privileged, what is needed to remedy the situation is a Level Playing Field.
It would be very difficult for any Republican to argue in public that what they want is a slanted playing field.
Say it loud and say it strong, and simplify what the Democratic party actually stands for. All people can be proud to say that they want a Level Playing Field!
Anyone agree? Disagree? Got a better, simpler, more inclusive idea?
