If we win the Presidency and Congress,
which parts of the constitution will remain and which parts will remain removed? For the articles and amendments still removed, will you still fight to restore them or just declare victory?

1. I certainly hope that the next President is totally for a complete...

2. Fight to restore them, victory isn't enough, and might be short-lived if we continue to cave in.
The repugs won't stop fighting, even if they are the minority party. And we know that the corprat media won't be friendly toward a Dem President/Congress.

5. How will we do that with the party leaders we have?
They appear to be an obstacle.

7. There in lies the problem. If I had the answer, I'd be rich and famous.
:evilgrin: Or vote 'em all out! And kick out the corprat lobbyists! That is the real problem!

4. Personally, I would like to see the Dems use the powers that George created for himself
to (1) get rid of any and all repuke influence in government via investigation, imprisonment, torture, and execution; (2) reverse through executive order all repuke laws rammed through during the past eight (hell, let's go back to raygun) years; implement a far-left agenda concerning health care, the media, etc.; and (4) THEN restore the rule of law as it should be.
