I think you could make a case for the Democratic Party coming apart. This new, younger, quasi-Socialist faction really doesn’t sit well with the old guard of the party. Will be interesting who gets the ultimate nomination, given this obvious division. I think that selection process will make the division that much wider.
Hard to imagine the Dems beating Trump when their party is so divided. If they nominate a conservative, the radicals will bolt; and if they nominate a radical, the old guard will.
I am a voracious reader and also enjoy writing. I often have a very different point of view than the popular one. I do see value in debate, and thought it might add to the public debate on controversial issues if I were to express my contrarian opinions. I also started keeping my poems recently (I've written little pieces my whole adult life but never kept any); and I've been a photographer now for over 25 years. So I will be adding an occasional poem and hopefully interesting photograph to the blog along the way, just to spice things up.
