This is so true. A reasonably competent person who’s willing to work hard can completely change a local committee.

As someone who’s active in my local Democratic Party, I am constantly amazed by how few people are. In my blue small city, probably less than 0.5% of Democratic voters are active in the party.

The people who need to do some soul searching are the main stream media. It’s clear they no longer have the ability to effectively communicate the truth to the American people and have it be believed. Why aren’t they reconsidering their practices?

My advice would be to get involved with your local Democratic committee. The local committees need to be reinvigorated and try new things.
