I'll always remember that time when Obama was up on stage taking questions from the Internet after having literally run on change as a campaign slogan and when someone asked about legalizing marijuana he literally laughed as if that would be absurd. And this is someone who did change quite a lot. The Democratic party's mainstream has been afraid of radical change for a long time, even though it's been demonstrated over and over again that it's what brings energy to the party and gives them the ability to move the ball.
I really hope this past election makes them a little less cautious and a little less centrist. We really can't have our representatives just sitting on their hands waiting for the tide to wash away any and all progress. We have to keep pushing forward so when we do take a step back we don't lose everything all at once.
