    Most Americans aren’t that conservative, they’ve just been conditioned to vote by party. If you break them out individually, many liberal and even progressive issues are supported by a majority of Americans. However the second you lump them together and call that the “Democratic Party Platform” you get a knee-jerk reaction against it.

      Agreed, specific issues a lot of people lean all over the place and I think more people are realizing we need social programs.
