We need David Hogg!

I am 65 year old left leaning voter and want the democratic party refreshed with the active energy and innovation of Hogg’s plan.

I feel frustrated when people keep just talking about Trump when I feel Trump is kind of a puppet for the authors and promoters and supporters of project 2025.

OK, so we need to examine our "values", but we need to accelerate into what "reflects our values" -- tangible things, and your list is probably as long as mine. Let's get to it. Put people to work doing all the critical things corporations can't make a profit on, and they are legion. It's how we lower the price of everything. They have stopped being "more efficient" and instead are locked into eating each other and charging us for the wasted energy. There are mountains of money once corporations start paying their fair share, and real representation once we undo Citizens United.

I just have to say that I LOVE David Hogg and have been Very Proud for him and have supported him from day one. We NEED young people to bring GOOD change to this country! You GO David! I'm so damned proud you and your stamina for Standing Up to hateful bullies. YOU are the bomb as far as I'M concerned. Yes, we do have to have better messages. Especially when the party sends surveys and questions to my mailbox. The questions are always REPETITIVE, with the SAME questions every time they ask, and they are Dumb questions! It's the SAME questions EVERY damned time and it's TRULY ANNOYING!! Please tell them that. I have tried by replying to their mailings and told them how ridiculous the questions are, b/c the answers ARE OBVIOUS. Please keep up your wonderful work. YOU were the first one to get me excited and hopeful for change to our party. And YES, we have to retire some of these non functioning older ones. I'm THRILLED with all of our New Progressives running now! HOORAY!!!! :-D Just keep up all of this great determination, and we'll be fine. Once more, THANK YOU David!!!!!!! :-D And Thanks Mike for having David on today. This is a breath of fresh air to me today. : ) <3

ditto on the repetitive messages. If I get ONE MORE email asking for my opinion whether I approve of Trump and then asking me to donate, I'm going to.......well I'm going to continue to write back asking them to inspire me, to tell me what they're actually going to DO about this mess....and especialy how they're going to get out and TALK to people, ask them their concerns and then have a plan to address them. Trump's going to put himself under - we just need to have something/someone for his voters to change over to, to believe in.

That's upsetting about Deja. I love what David Hogg is doing. We need the young people to get involved. I so totally believe that they are the ones who will get this country to move forward and create the new democracy. And I'm 82. I'm just looking to outlive the Trump administration and see a new progressive president.

How can the Dem party survive when the bully party just shuts us down left and right?
