@007 That's the thing though - RJKjr isn't "woke" and the reasons why he decided the democratic party won't do anything for him are important.

In a two-party democracy, you have to look at how the game is played. And what this is looking like is a realignment, which is pretty rare.

I think he is indicitive of a lot of whites that are like him: care about the environment, health, etc. But also don't like open racial hatred, not that they even think it is evil, it just is something "distasteful"

But for a long time, those types have hung on with the democratic party, but now seem to be deciding they are actually independent.
