I am using Amy Klobuchar as an example simply because she is my Senator, and so is known to me.
Amy K is a Democrat, yes?
A leader in the Democratic Party, well respected by her base constituency.
No argument so far, right?
PLEASE do not misunderstand the next part~
Amy K fully accepts the Democratic position on issues concerning the country.
But what if she didn't?
Pick an issue-LGBTQ, Immigration, Healthcare, Abortion...it doesn't matter which one you choose-if there were ANY single issue on which Amy K broke with the party...what would you think of her?
Remember, please-I am NOT suggesting that Amy K DOES disagree with any issue-I am asking a simple question:
IF she DID...would your opinion of her change?
I am now arriving at the point of this post:
Any Democrat who does not toe the Party line, no matter how right they are on 99% of the issues...would be considered a turncoat, an enemy if they dared to disagree on any primary issue.
I am not a Republican. I walked away from the party for my own reasons, one of which is that the Republican 'label' doesn't define who I am.
I am a Christian.
There will be some who say, "We are Democrats AND Christians!"
Really?
Don't say that too loudly at the next meeting or you might find yourself labeled a turncoat.
At the very least you will be eyed with suspicion, and every statement you make going forward will be sifted and checked to see if you are one of 'Those'.

With that said, I hope that everyone votes next month. It is a privilege, one not enjoyed by a majority of the world's population. Vote.
