"Why do the Democrats so brazenly ignore their base?"
He who asks seems to ignore that the base of the Democratic Party, not unlike the Republicans, are not who select the lists of candidates. The bases of the parties just vote, nothing else. Politics in both are decided by the lobbies, among whom AIPAC has a special relevance.
anticant is the blogname of a lifelong free speech and civil rights campaigner. A lot of his life since WW2 has been taken up with battling against cruel and over-bossy laws, censorship, censoriousness, and Nanny Knows Best types. Now elderly and in poor health, anticant hopes his memories and thoughts will be of interest to those engaged in today's struggles for freedom, democracy, and a more hopeful tomorrow.
