"...there is no such thing as a good democrat. Change my mind."

Sure. I'll give it a shot. I've been a Democrat for a while now. I'm a retired computer teacher. I taught kids, thats at least a +1; I taught kids computer applications in Texas, +1 maybe even a +2; I love flying in small airplanes ( that does not really have anything to do with being a good Dem but I thought I'd throw that in there.) I've not been in jail yet but have had traffic tickets so that one is a draw; I've never hurt anyone intentionally +1; I like younger men but am not really a cougar so another draw; I moved all the way to South Carolina once to be with a young man who had an illness of Chron's. He and I were more companions than lovers but I did truly love him. He passed away and I moved home. (Random acts of kindness) +1; I raised two children who have jobs and are not on drugs +2; I knew a man who had a small plane. I got to fly in it. Highlight of my life. +1; I help out my friends when I can even when I'm short on money. Just donated to a friend 100 no payback needed +1; I love dogs +1; Cats make me sneeze -1; I think I got 10. If my math is wrong please deduct -1 as I was never good at math.

Good Democrats died with FDR .... baptist Truman started many of the illegal wars we still fight today.....Korea makes Kia cars taking away USA jobs when Kirea should make peace and share the wealth of Korea with Koreabs bring home all USA troops from the DNZ

In four years of the Republican Trump madness the only major bill passed was a tax cut for the Mega Rich. In two months of Biden the Dems have passed a monumental bill that helps the poor and middle class.

People who set out a point of view and then challenge others to "change their minds" are already announcing that their minds are made up. In this example, the person has already decided that, where Democrats are concerned, "Favors social programs for the needy -100, favors gender and LGBTQ+ equity -150, believes in racial justice and equality -300, believes in progressive taxation -150, believes in reasonable gun control -500, believes the Department of Homeland Security when they say the 2020 election was the most secure and fairest in history -1000"; on a scale of 1 to 10.

oh gawd you used math....but i get your drift. His mind is made up. And he scores Democrats -1000

And I believe in all those things so I guess I'm -1000

@JustLuAnn It actually adds up to -2200 I believe, just glancing at it, and yes, I was a math minor 😀 Sorry about that.

Democrats are interested in improving society. Republicans are interested in lining the bank accounts of those in power who have duped them into thinking it's the "right" thing to do.

A lifelong Democrat, I have volunteered as a high school college mentor since 2006.

I help first generation (children of immigrants) write essays to apply for college and scholarship applications. One of my best success stories is Brenda, who won $269,445 in 2016. Brenda is becoming a medical doctor and pathologist. She hopes to cure diseases.

Court Jester is the first guy I ever blocked. He's from Alabama and he had the brass balls to make fun of Philadelphia. Toothless white dude from the armpit of America.

He's not even worth the calories expended in typing a response

@Larimar He pretends to be a doctor although he's barely literate. I blocked him because he is a complete waste of time.

@barjoe He blocked me because I agreed with someone who disagreed with his comments. I ve noticed he's unblocked me again 😂

@TimeOutForMe Block him back.
