I vote other. Heather and Robert should be obsessive compulsive,

We can have all we want. First we have to win BIG. We have the capacity to overwhelm the forces of evil. In my state approximately 900,000 women, who heavily trend Democratic are unregistered,

It's March. We have to start NOW.

Daniel, what would it take for the SCOTUS to make a decision that would reverse CU , knowing the implausibility of that any time soon?

Whitehouse is the best. About 2:30 in the video he talks about in Citizens United the injustices stated that their decision rested upon their belief that campaign donations would be transparent to the public. Despite this being patently false, the court has not seen fit to revisit CU.

I've speculated that Thomas was bribed. Doesn't mean they'd come up with a different result.

I believe the cure for Citizens United is a blue Congress and a second Biden presidency. Reversing CU can be part of the next version of the Freedom to Vote Act.

Hopefully in the first week of January, Democrats will be in position to - and of the inclination to - send the filibuster to the dumpster of time. Of course, if Republicans sweep things using all the dirty tricks we know about and a few more that we donтАЩt, then it will be democracy in the dumpster instead. #RepubliFascism will reign supreme and my Social Security benefits will instead be replaced by vouchers for gun manufacturersтАж

Won't get past SCOTUS. Need an amendment.

Daniel, are you part of Field Team 6?

I volunteer. I just want to win. I started working with them in 2020. I've never seen anything like it. If I had the money, I'd fully fund them -- expand to every state. The statistics are compelling.

I've also been in a veteran's group through the DNC -- which targets a completely different demographic. I am the "not suckers or losers" guy. The "Trump stole from disabled vets" guy.

Whereas Field Team 6 is growing our base, out vet group takes on MAGATs and lumpen vets and military families. 16 million vets.

How did you find out who was unregistered? I am trying to find that information. My city clerk (Troy, MI) said I would have to pay for the registered list, they тАШdonтАЩt have unregistered information.тАЩ And it would only be for Troy.

Field Team 6 has a subcontractor that gets that info. If you watch their summit video, they were on after Robert Hubbell.
