Is he Rep? Reason I'm wondering is the hat tip to Bernie. Good ol' Bernie's still got some miles left in him. Who knows, maybe coalition politics will help us emerge from these dark times.
I'm not quite sure what "Rep" means. It would mean 2 things, so I'll answer what I see as 2 questions:
1. If "Rep" means Republican, then yes. All Oklahoma Senators and House representatives are Republicans. Eric is quite correct. Oklahoma voters aren't the sharpest tools in the shed.
2. If "Rep" means a house representative, then no, he's one of our 2 Senators.
3. I think this platform may be the key to getting some wins in Red States. I know I like it. It also seems to match Bernie's platform when he ran. Prairie populism isn't dead, but is alive and well. Note to Eric: I can go along to get along with gun control in exchange for the other platform planks. I don't expect anything to be perfect. I can compromise.
Rags is having a good day
