And I still disagree.

Democrats are such a big tent, with a wide range of ideas and priorities, that any single set of policies that purported to be a unified consensus of the Democratic Party would almost certainly be a watered down, bland, unappetizing, meaningless pablum of a document.

It would almost certainly be contaminated with the Hollow Centrist Trojan Horse “Abundance Agenda” nonsense that Ezra Klein and others have been trying to shove down the Party’s throat as the only path to victory.

I’d rather see each individual Dem Primary candidate propose their own Project 2029 agenda of priorities, clearly staking out their positions on various issues, including court expansion.

Then, whichever candidate secures the nomination, their proposals become the party’s Project 2029.

Otherwise it’s going to be party insiders and consultants in smoke filled rooms deciding what to cram down voters throats.

Again.
