I wholeheartedly agree. Mysteriously the official Dems can’t figure it out so WE need to take action. Immediately! Who will lead us in launching an effective communications campaign?

I do not understand "mysteriously" as the Democratic Party's method of information. Is there something party leadership does not understand about appealing to the "masses?" There is a lot of patting on the back for our good deeds, but there is an element missing. It may have been identified. The people the party works for, the people of the US does not believe we actually do this because we believe in them and the promise of America. Many are not part of it, now living on the streets and in homeless encampments. "Forgotten and Ignored America" needs to be re-embraced by the Democratic Party. Corporate money is not where the real power is; the real power resides in the people of this country - ALL OF THEM and ALL OF US.

Beautiful sentiment. Democratic party leadership knows full well about appealing to the masses. Getting the message to the masses unless by skywriting around the country, will never get to the masses if we remain in the blackout created by conservative/rightwing media.

Well, we need well crafted messages, visible and direct, and persistent. A bit like all those anti war placards that went up over bridges during the Iraq war only more professional. There are ways to do this. People get paid big money to sway audiences. This is no different except we want to preserve the democracy and constitutional governance - who does this is probably going to need to change.
