re: #74 freetoken
A nation our size probably is not going to produce a dramatic shift in policy towards a more progressive stance, but it can produce a small step in that direction.
California went from being a swing state to being reliably Democratic in one election cycle, and almost entirely because of Prop 187. But it still took almost two decades for it to become “progressive” - hell, Prop 8 won here the same year Obama was elected.
Real, substantive change like that takes time.
