Convention

The Democratic convention will be held in Chicago next summer and it could be reminiscent of the 1968 convention when things got out of hand. It was a time of the Civil Rights movement and the protest against the Vietnam War and riots broke out in the streets and at the convention center. This year the country is dealing with the war in Ukraine which is becoming less popular by the day and the War in Gaza which is dividing democrats along the line of oppressor vs oppressed. Jews and Catholics have for many years been strong democrats but those votes are now in jeopardy. People in general are upset with the economy, mostly because of inflated cost of basic items, while they are confused about social justice issues like gender identity.
