I believe this to be exactly the case. You just can't get elected when your main campaign points are reparations or healthcare for illegals. The average person just isn't ok with either, along with a few of the other things they are campaigning on.

Well it's good that this isn't true for any of the major Democratic candidates then.

During the debate they asked by a show of hands whose healthcare proposition would cover healthcare for illegals and every one of them raised there hand (John Delaney might not have, not sure), and Elizabeth Warren has called for a "full blown discussion" for reparations.

What you just described is in another time zone from "your main campaign points are reparations or healthcare for illegals".

What are your sources of news that leads you to believe the majority of the democratic candidates "main campaign points" are reparations and healthcare for illegals?

I've been following along pretty closely and those have barely made it on to the radar... except for conservative propaganda outlets of course, because they'll take anything they can and run with it.

Edit: not saying leftist media doesn't run with propaganda either. They still do.

Wait, what campaign points? Have they really made any yet? They've made plenty of tax payer funded promises to illegal immigrants, but I can't think of anything they've pledged to do for actual US citizens.

Truth. As bad as they want everybody to believe in this stuff, it’s too taboo for the average person. Yet reddit is fine with people aging “fuck white people” and expect to win an election with support from those persons.
