50. Similar Question Congressman Grayson...
And thank you for all you do.

What is the relationship between party platform and actual governing? And what duties do elected officials have for leading their constituents, versus merely reflecting their will?

It seems as though some of our fellow Democrats have forgotten our own history, ie.

Civil liberties
Ethical conservation
Economic progressivism
Environmental justice
Fair trade
Feminism
Labor rights
Anti-racism
Social justice
Social progressivism
Social welfare
Women's rights
Women's suffrage
Square Deal
New Deal
Second Bill of Rights
Fair Deal
New Frontier
Great Society

Just to name a few.

Once again. thank you.
