Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 1950s & 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children against deadly childhood diseases. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone.

Do you honestly think it's okay that a Israeli PAC has so much influence over the Democratic party? I realize that you're Jewish, but a foreign influenced PAC shouldn't be allowed to donate money to your campaign because it makes you look very corrupt. Return the money or face a Democratic revolt.

I love the convenience of streaming, but for any movie or TV show that's really important to me, I want to own a physical copy. The quality is often noticeably better, and it is much less likely to disappear suddenly if a license expires or a company goes out of business.

I don't want to hear Democrats tell us that they're not going to do Republican bullshit around labor. I want them to tell us about how they're going to expand workers' rights in their state, and what their plan is if the Supreme Court scorches the National Labor Relations Act tomorrow.
