When Democrats regain power, should we "look forward" and forget? (Poll)

7. This is completely the wrong question.

The question is not what happens AFTER the election. The question is whom we elect.

We need to make sure every Democratic candidate running for ANY national office, and especially the Presidency, understands that shit is over. The American people have had enough of that.

I don't expect candidates to run on a vendetta tour. But I do expect them to STRONGLY support some very crucial principles, such as:
* SCOTUS must be fundamentally reformed with strict ethical accountability, unquestionable transparency, term limits, limits on legislation from the bench, and an expanded body commensurate with the complexity of today's society. And this commitment must include actively working to restore voting rights and getting corporations and their money out of our government.
* The richest individuals and corporations must pay their fair share for the benefits they get from our society
* We must prosecute all major crimes committed within our government, regardless who are the criminals
* We must hold social media accountable for the damage done by their systems, their algorithms, their robots, and their AI.
* We demand an immediate halt to the construction of AI data centers until we have laws governing the safe and transparent use of AI, including compensating artists for the theft of their IP. Any new data centers must include the carbon-neutral generation of TWICE the electricity used by the data center, with that excess going directly to the people in the form of reduced electrical rates. And a similar set of requirements for the water used by data centers.

... and so on. Maybe these aren't exactly the platform items -- I offer these by way of example. The point is that we must fight for these things BEFORE the elections, and fight AGAINST any candidates we can't trust to fight for these things. If we don't the office-holders will just blow it off later.

And by the way, lots of conservatives want these things too. If we present this agenda in the right way, we will get support all across the spectrum.
