How bout I just leave

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by ellisonz (a host of the Democracy for America group).

I will pack it in if asked. If I am asked to leave, the repiglicans win again because of cowardly democracy action.

One message to all. Yall can talk about all the things wrong as far as substance goes, progressive this and progressive that but!! w/o a fight your long winded posts and intellectual arguments aint goina do squat unless ya get out there and fight.

Intellectualizing gets my clients in trouble when they are in group or in a 1:1 with me.

I am not going to stop fighting for more voices!!!

Did Martin Luther King, Joe Hill, Malcom X, JFK and Obama all shut up and stop fighting?

listen to the grand variety of perspectives here.
Please forgive the unsolicited advice

There are many kinds of activists -- much goes on that none
of us see. DU is a great place to learn a lot, and have your
own p.o.v. challenged -- from which you can benefit, all
of us can.
