That is the fundamental lesson of democratic politics. If you count on your leaders to do the right thing without being made to do it, you're naive. And you are bound to be dispppointed. The problem with the Dems is not that they have to be made to do it, but that so often they can't be made to do it.

Yes, it is a sign that minorities have power in the Democratic Party that it fights for expanded rights for those minorities. How is it a fall from anywhere that the Dems continue to fight to expand civil rights?
What in your mind would be a sign of such concession?
