While the purpose of the Democratic debates was to let certain candidates stand out as front runners, they had the opposite effect on me. In listening to these intelligent, articulate (mostly, Eric Stalwart and Amy Klobuchar couldn’t quite move past kitsch) and passionate candidates it occurred to me that our country will be OK if all of these individuals can find a way to work together to right our listing ship. Whoever becomes the Democratic candidate and wins in 2020, I hope the rest of the pack considers how they can contribute to bring dignity and democracy back. We need them all.
