Mamdani’s platform should be the basic Democratic platform. It was once upon a time.

Labor over capital. Workers over owners. FDR’s second bill of rights.

These are very basic ideas that most people would get behind.

We need to stop letting the least worthy and least needy people steal the public funds that should be used to give a better life to the People.
