I've been wondering for a bit why during the time the Democrats controlled the legislature, executive, and judicial branches during Obama's first term in 2008 more wasn't accomplished. Shouldn't that have been the opportunity to make Row V Way law and fix the electoral college? I understand the recession was going on but outside of Obamacare getting passed which didnt go far enough it seems like they didn't really do much with all that power. Are there other important accomplishments from this time that didn't get the news they deserved? It seems like the voters have done their job in the past to elect people to fix things and yet we are still here begging people to vote to fix issues like abortion rights.

 

Idk how active this community is but I need people to play with so thought I'd check here. I play on PC and I'm nearly orange rank with Feng and Xiao but willimg play with anyone who is chill.

I use mullvad and I'm too dumb to understand what this means. Can one of lemmy's many IT experts ELI5?
