The 2020 election is too important for our future

for litmus tests, pet issues and other petty differences.

There is only one political party that can challenge Trump and the GOP. It's not the Green party. It is not the Socialist Party. It is the Democratic party. We all need to support the Democratic party as strongly as is possible until the elections.

That means not withholding donations to the DNC because you think the Dems in Congress are not moving quick enough on impeachment. Refusing to work for local candidates because you don't like the climate change plank in the convention platform. Or staying home on election because the nominee isn't perfect or pure enough for you.

We have lost elections in the past because of silly things like this. But 2020 is far too important to the future of our country for anyone to sit on their ideological high horse.

It is a shame so many don't feel the same way and are still operating as if it is any other election.
