You can't be a liberal and not be a progressive...you however can be a progressive and not a liberal, as we have seen.

Liberal encompasses ALL that is good about progressive, and then it goes on to do much more, as you know.

For instance a liberal will ALWAYS put civil rights above economics.

If I were to vote in a presidential
