I often think about the division of the parties in the U S, and how I am STUCK voting Republican or independent mainly, because I cannot agree to vote for a party member who does not believe that a fetus inside its mother's body is alive and human.
Yesterday I realized that the Dems don't have to have as a plank in their party platform what amounts to the condoning of abortion as a legitimate thing.
Even if "abortion rights" IS the "law of the land", the Dems don't have to make their party odious to persons such as me by explicitly siding with abortion rights people. (Who is brave enough to tackle again the reasoning that US Supreme Court put forth in Roe vs. Wade decision. Science and technology have ripped the original "boundary" of thought that the fetus is not " alive" or "human" because it cannot live outside mother and is therefore only a possession of mom.)
Recently, I've wondered what JFK and Martin Luther King, whom the Dems point to as the heritage of their party, would have said about abortion rights being the"law of the land" and their party being the champion of abortion rights.
