Yes. We keep trying to tell conservatives that the Democratic Party isn't primarily a bunch of wild-eyed zealots intent on inflicting a maximally progressive Marxist/socialist state on the American people.
Ues, the communist Party is spent in the USA, it has maybe about 3-5k members, mostly old. I met one fellow who'd been a member for four months, but he quit because you had to believe exactly like they did, dogma. There;s much more people in the progressive area and the new social democrats are welcome. That movement never was part of the radical communist revolutionary and thought socialism could be brought about by democratic means, Nowadays most of them believe in the blend of capitalism and socialism that works so well in the Scandinavian countries.
I however consider myself center-left. You'll find me willing to limit the number of refugees coming in every year and willing to compromise there. I think we can do better on health care and Obamacare was a good start. We should go for univer3sal healthcare. We aren't going to be top dog all the time and need to make and keep alliances for protection and trade - isolationism won't work. We are much better off if we don't dictate, just influence.
