The post to which I replied, was not worded in such a way, that I took your statements to refer to non-politicians.

I can see from the wording that what you say is correct.
In the last statement of that post I did mean both individuals and local politicians, not so much state and national.

There may be a very few out there on the state and national level but I'm not conversant enough with any but my own state to be able to tell you. And I can't think of any Dems from my state on those levels that I could point to.

Thank you for that and for the civil discussion.

Due to the wording of your post, I unfortunately took it at face value and replied to that which was not your intent. I'm glad that this has now all been cleared up. And kudos to you, for not attempting to reply to my question, because you feel, unqualified to do so. It was a far too broad question, I now realize, and one which I doubt anyone here would be qualified to answer.
