An organization formed as a result of the 2016 United States presidential election and has a stated goal of reforming the Democratic Party by running "a unified campaign to replace every corporate-backed member of Congress and rebuild the Democratic Party from scratch" starting in the 2018 congressional midterm elections. info
Straz Campaign Just Ignores The Rules
Elitist David Straz doesn’t like playing by the rules. For at least the second consecutive month, the putative Tampa mayoral candidate’s PAC filed an incomplete financial report with the Hillsborough County Supervisor of Elections.
The billionaire, who made his fortune buying and selling banks, said he had no contributions or expenditures in the February reporting period.
In the very public world of politics, no one is buying the garbage that he is selling. more

Florida Dems: Silence Of The Lambs
Yemen is the poorest country in the Middle East. Since 2015, Saudi Arabia has bombed the entire nation to pieces, starved its citizens via a blockade, caused a deadly cholera outbreak, and allegedly attacked innocent people by using illegal chemical weapons such as
white phosphorus.

Saudis in the assault.

Yet despite those well-documented facts, Florida's senior U.S. senator, Bill Nelson, voted to table a resolution that would have pulled America's support for the Saudi-led humanitarian catastrophe.

Yet not a word from the
Florida Democratic Party!
Where is the outrage?
And you wonder why voters are leaving your party

It’s Time The Florida Democratic Party Grew Some Balls
Florida Democratic Party: We Want Black and Progressive Votes but Not Their Candidates
-----
In 2018 Florida Democrats will have the opportunity to nominate two Afro-Americans to statewide offices: Mayor Andrew Gillum of Tallahassee for governor and State Rep. Sean Shaw for attorney general. Both are exceptional candidates.
-----
The race for governor is clearcut: Gillum, a compelling orator and bona fide Democrat, stands out in a four-way race that includes former Miami Beach mayor Philip Levine, former Congresswoman Gwen Graham, and entrepreneur Chris King.
-----
There are 3.4 million blacks in Florida, nearly 17 percent of the population. They vote overwhelmingly Democratic and closely align with the progressive wing.
-----
The charismatic Gillum gives the Democratic party its best chance to win the governorship which has been in Republican hands for 20 years. He would motivate voters who normally shun the polls in off-year elections. It also offers the Florda Democratic party to right past wrongs and truly represent its constituency.
-----
The fallacious notion, long perpetrated by the party apparatus, that a Democrat needs to be a centrist marginalizes black candidates and white progressives. That’s been the modus operandi under the last five party chairpersons who are either elitists (Alison Tant and Stephen Bittel), conservative (Rod Smith), or self-serving (Scott Mattox and Karen Thurman).
-----
All shared one trait: they were
supremely ineffective.
-----
Succeeding the disgraced Bittel is Terrie Rizzo who headed the Palm Beach Democrats. She defeated Stacy Patel who was backed by progressives.
-----
Rizzo says she will “reach out” to progressives. Sorry, lady, that’s not enough. White progressive and black voters will not be voting for Republican Lite candidates in this election cycle or any future one for that matter.
-----
Then there are hundreds of thousands of progressives registered as No Party Affiliation. They, too, don’t buy into the failed centrist right philosophy of
the state party.

Right Wing Idiot Nancy Stacy Of Marion County, Florida
Marion County Superintendent of Schools Heidi Maier’s decision to turn a national “school walkout day” on April 20 into a civics lesson about the Bill of Rights has infuriated School Board member
Nancy Stacy.

Stacy accused Maier of “bowing to the left (liberal agenda)” if she allows any protests to take place, adding that the superintendent is being used by the “political idiots of the left.”
-----
“We all know the students didn’t arrange a thing here or Tallahassee or nationwide,” Stacy said. “This is another example of why we need (school) vouchers for parents to escape this abusive manipulation of their
children’s minds.”

-----
“This is nothing but a sugar-coated excuse to let the gun control politicos come play in our local public school sandbox to participate in the national movement to control the minds of America’s most innocent,” Stacy continued. “You simply brilliantly put sheep’s clothing on this wolf skillfully tying it to making America great. Instead we are giving liberal academia a platform as an inroad to speak AGAINST what makes America great which is our right to protect ourselves.”
