I thought congress has enough evidence to take her down for cooking the books on late term abortion procedures. It’s hypocritical, that democrats claim that the sale of fetal tissue helps fund research for diseases such as diabetes, yet, there is no equal amount of federal $$$ funding for treatment of Diabetes, which knows no gender bounds, and most certainly, does not discriminate as a disease by any race or creed. Funding Planned parenthood is a sexist policy, especially since abortion is elective surgery, and not medically necessary, certainly not emergency care. Cecil Richards, if elected leader of DNC, would further corrupt the democrat party if that is even possible.

Both of these leaders are charismatic

Don't know about Richards, but Perez is charismatic like Eddie Haskell was charismatic. I can't believe that someone that was in my grade school class might be the next DNC chair. Ugh.

Cecile Richards is perfect to lead the DNC. Since she has never won an election, PERFECT!

Her Elitist Life (from Wiki)...
“She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in history from Brown University in 1980.

When she was 30 she moved back to Texas to help with her mother Ann Richards with her campaign for Governor.

She is currently on the board of the Ford Foundation, a global private foundation with the mission of advancing human welfare.

She was one of the founders of America Votes, a 501(c)4 organization that aims to coordinate and promote progressive issues, and is currently serving as president.

Richards previously founded and served as president of America Votes, a coalition of national Democratic Party-affiliated organizations.

Before that, she was deputy chief of staff to the U.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, the Democratic Leader in the U.S. House of Representatives.

She has also worked at the Turner Foundation.

In 1996, she founded the Texas Freedom Network, a Texas organization formed to counter the Christian right.”

I’m rooting for Ellison in every FR thread I see. He’s just what the Democrat Party needs right now. And America, too, for all the reasons you guys mention.

Yes but...... the hidden undercurrent is she is looking for a new job, one with more security.

They should just admit reality and nominate Donald Trump. He’s owned them for the last year, anyway. :>)

Tom Perez is a left-wing, socialist hack. Ugly as sin, too.

I wouldn’t hire him to clean my yard.

1) They don’t really exist these days. The GOP has a stranglehold on that demographic due to purity demands from the DNC.

2) Even if such was nominated, the big city base would scream bloody murder and revolt. He or she wouldn’t last long.
