So, how do you feel about a liberal who does not and never has been a part of the Dem party ( In OH, I have to pick one to vote in a primary, but I just pick one when I know which one I want to vote in)...I don't get tribes, and have no desire to be in one

I am, however, a liberal who votes liberal when they represent my values and ideology...so, I am not allowed an opinion on how I think the party should go as it matters to how I vote?
I don't think you should get to roleplay campaign strategist, no. I think everyone can have whatever opinion they want, but if you want to say "Democrats should/need to do X" you better be a member of the party if you want me to take that opinion seriously.
There's a difference between saying "this is what would make me vote for the Democrats" and saying "Democrats should/need to do what I say if they want to win."
If you want to say a) as a non-Democrat, go for it. Everyone's entitled to their opinion. But it's not in the party's best interest to let non-members dictate how we campaign, message, etc. If you want to do that and be taken seriously, you should join the party.

huh, so I have no say in what would make me vote for them...or as a liberal what I think the goals should be?
Interesting

Hope that clears things up
Well, they wouldn't listen to me anyway, I am nobody...
I don't think it is dictating, I think it is suggesting, they are free to disregard or ignore
But, I get your point...
