Yay! We've won the presidency.
Now we can focus on winning those Senate seats in Georgia.
And we can also work on our messaging! /1

"Defund the police" should never be uttered again by a Democratic politician. What you mean is that you want to reform the police. You want to demilitarize the police. You want the police to think before the shoot.
Let's work on a better slogan. /2

"Medicare for All!" isn't the best slogan because there are millions of Americans who know that Medicare kinda sucks. What you actually want is *Medicaid* for all. But you don't want to say that because Americans associate Medicaid unemployed folks.
Let's work on it. /3

"Democratic socialism" isn't good terminology 'cause it uses the word "socialism" and millions of Americans emigrated from socialist countries. Putting the word "democratic" before it doesn't help. If you have to use paragraphs to explain it, your message is bad.
Rebrand! /4

Oh, one more thing...
When you find out someone is Jewish, don't follow up that revelation by asking how he or she feels about Israeli foreign policy.
I've noticed that people on the left do this A LOT.
Stop it.

That's not just an innocent question. When you ask it, you're asking someone who's different than you to qualify whether he or she is sufficiently American enough based on his or her identity.
I am unwilling to be the anti-Semitic party, so yinz just need to stop.
I have a lot of problems with Israeli foreign policy. A lot. I can enumerate if you want me to.
But there's a difference between that and asking an entire group of people to be answerable for Israeli policy.

The idea that American Jews--hell, Jews in general--are responsible for Israeli policy has become pervasive throughout Western leftism.
That needs to stop. I'd like it to stop here, in America.

The idea that "Jews are responsible for X" is a recurring theme throughout history. It would be nice if it ended here.
I won't put my name on any party that ascribes to that.
