Photo by Bermix Studio on Unsplash I recently checked out the 2020 Democratic Platform. I admit, I only got through one page. The entire document is 92 pages. I managed to get through the section titled Healing the Soul of America. This seemed to me the most likely place to find the values of the Democratic party. There is a lot of “we believe” stuff in there, but it was a long slog. And I didn’t see anything resembling a list of basic values. What I did find was far too wordy, far too detailed, and mostly a pipe dream. Why? Because they’ve been saying these things for years and so far haven’t managed to do any of them.
