However...it gets harder to justify the arrogant dismissal of 100,000 thinking, feeling human beings as "ignorant" if one considers the unconsiderable possibility that there could exist a valid set of arguments (albeit ones that you do not necessarily have to agree with) that bear the conclusion that the current Democratic platform is not what "we" (the people*) want.

* specifically these 100,000 people, in this case (otherwise known as the ignorant, unthinking automatons)

You do not appear to be taking into account the primaries.

I didn't forget, I was just hoping you wouldn't notice. You're like a whack-a-mole.
