Can't expect Democratic candidates to pay attention ...

... to this anymore than they pay attention to anything else the public (which includes bloggers, by the way) thinks or should be thinking about:

What's the USA Future: Democracy or Empire?

[ ... ]

So perhaps those Democratic strategists that think we don't have to have this discussion right now need to reconsider. We are on the path of collapsing just like our archenemy did a few decades ago. We might need to find a way to wake the American public about this threat so they too can have a voice in the outcome. It really is about guns and butter.
