Staying home means you get no power. Black people did not stay home....we took action....and gained power. Stop complaining....stop staying home.....

Grew up in the 70s. Saw black voters around the country elect black mayors for the first time in major cities across the country. This effort enable black voters elect Congresswomen/men. Then become valuable voters for the Dems. party. We did not wait. We took action. Action gets you power.

Dems. have won 3 out the past 5 national elections. V.P. Harris lost by 1.5% after campaigning for one hundred days and Trump campaigning for two straight years. Trump max. his base but needed additional votes from some Hispanic and black voters. She did not max. her base and nearly won.

Trump campaigned for two straight lying about how will fixed the economy, i.e., reduce prices. Too many Americans believed the lie. He barely won 1.5%. V.P. Harris campaigned for one hundred days and almost won. No change candidate. A liar too many Americans believed.

and Trump's polices are working out well for them right now.. Hint: Student loan and climate change are issues Trump supports.

Still complaining.

Be my guess Hint: with continued low voter participation rate among young voters, you will not succeed.

and spend time on social media complaining about the party. Great use of your time and energy.

It would nice if young people vote in higher numbers and support candidates young people are excited about. Hint: Black voters accomplished that via high voter participation.

How about just starting your own party. If you want change, then move on from the party and create your own change...create your own policies. Keep complaining is not getting you no where.

You are still complaining. If you are not happy, leave the party....go form your own party with David Hogg. Go conquer the world and leave us Dems. alone.

Yeah, whatever. As a boomer, we are voting in higher numbers and have influence in the party. Young people are voting in lower numbers and have little to now influence or power. It is the young people who are complaining.
