Former Democrat
In a recent campaign stop, Sen. Thomas Lincoln reacted recent media descriptions of him as a “former Democrat.”
“I am not a former Democrat,” he argued. “I haven’t left the Party and have no plans to do so. I won’t go so far as to say the Party left me, although that’s a fashionable theme among my group.” Lincoln is a prolife Democrat.
“I’m simply a Democrat who’s running for President as an independent. I would govern as a Democrat. In fact, I will likely run the country in a way that most Democrats–the rank and file, if not the power elite–would want.”
