In the 2020 Democratic nominating process, I only want one thing, a Progressive Democrat who talks about the real issues facing the working class and the poor.

To nobody’s surprise, Paul Ryan kept his seat with 84% of the vote.
Russ Feingold did even better, beating Scott Harbach with 90%.

I recently read a letter to the editor, touting one candidate's worthiness for office over another. In this case the writer was comparing Johnson and Feingold. My opinion on the two makes no difference. But I do have a comment and some advice for the...
