    Oh, you so seldom get it. Asking any legislator of either party and any ideology to stop caring about their re-election is insane. It's like asking them to stop caring about breathing. They can't ignore their constituents. That's why they're called "representatives." Many legislators of both parties will take tough votes against self-interest if they feel the goal is worthy enough. Mulvaney isn't asking himself "how come this goal wasn't deemed worthy?"

    I'm sort of one of the few. I know a lot of good watering holes and things to do.

    But it's always fun to visit the Inner Harbor and then witness a body being fished out.

    Why should he?

    Protests in Russia must be sanctioned (so that municipal preparations can be made for safety reasons and to not inconvenience the rest of the people). They were sanctioned in 24 cities. It was not sanctioned in Moscow. Thus, the protest was illegal in the place Navalny decided to hold it. Navalny was offered other locations for his protest but refused.

    You can probably make the list easily. Just think about the causes that signify progress, or the semblance of it. After all, those LBJ policies might work someday.

    Then eliminate anything that might go sour on some of the established pockets of influence. Example: The Missouri protest was something to back at the start, because progress. (Might have to make some jumps in thinking, such as whether the truck redneck existed or if the university should be responsible.) But as soon as the professor started sounding off, that was bad because Mizzou!

    Using this line of thinking, you can support the white suburbs, but not the white rural areas because Trump.

    Also, you might need to buy some more bread.
