Should Democratic Candidates Start Using the Word "Poor" Again

Advertisements [?]

I'm just saying, at some point Democratic Candidates made this conscious decision to stop using the word "poor," preferring middle class. With the Middle Class so decimated now, nearly destroyed, with reams of new poor added to the existing poor, should the democrats start using "the poor, working and non-working, and middle class," in their stump speeches?
