Too many moderate Democratic politicians seem to want to portray that they are safe so they can attract Republican and Independent votes rather than be bold about why their vision and their ideas are best for the city/district/state.

If you don’t have issues you are passionate about, then you are just in politics for power and influence and that’s the opposite of what we need from our leaders.

As a real, live, self professed, old moderate—exactly! Of course, FDR and Johnson did wild “socialist” things like establish Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, and unions used to have power so people received living wages.
