The Democrats' Forgotten People

How the Trump Base Can Find A Home in the Democratic Party

Description

The Democratic Party is like a quilt with numerous identity groups -- African-Americans, Hispanics, recent immigrants, young people, educated people, women, the LGBTQ community. But what seems to missing is the core constituency of Franklin Roosevelt ninety years ago -- white working class people. This group has been hijacked by right-wing extremists including George Wallace and Donald Trump. Democrats have discounted this group, even having one presidential nominee call them a ""basket of deplorables."" But they are human beings, and many can be open to appeals for hope rather than hate and fear. This books is about ways that the Democratic Party can open its tent to the Trump base without compromising its core principles. Doing so is ethical, and also will be politically wise.
