Democrats are becoming 'smarty-pants, suburban, college-educated party', says David Axelrod
Ex-Obama advisor David Axelrod said that he was concerned that Democrats are appealing more to college-educated voters than to the rest of the country.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I think if you look closer, you'll find that it's not college educated qua college educated voters the Democrats appeal to, but those who (1) went through college after the "long march of the left through the institutions" had thoroughly captured university administrations, offices of students life, and all but STEM departments (and even some of those) on the academic side and (2) didn't major in STEM, and thus were exposed to more indoctrination.
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

It's not that they are colleged-educated, it's that they look down upon the rest of us as "less than" or inferior.

As a delorable white heterosexual Chirtsian male of Western European descent, Libs, Dems, and Progressives see me as an undesirable, second-class citizen - a cockroach - in my own country.

The current Dem Party very much looks like the party constructed by liberal, white female, college grads. That's basically what got Harris the Veep job.
Not only did the Big Thinkers in the party decide that Biden's Veep pick had to be a female.....she had to be a minority female thereby eliminating 97% of the possible choices. Many top white females in the Dem Party were all for that.
During the Biden admin we saw numerous weird people nominated and confirmed for jobs who wouldn't have had a chance even in a Dem admin twenty years ago. Biden junked all his so-called moderate positions, and embraced numerous woke positions. That could have been caused by him being pressured into doing so by the far left of the party.
So, for the Dems to have a chance in 2028, barring a Trump admin disaster, they're going have to move closer to the center. Throw out the woke agenda and actually champion what average Americans want.
The chances of that happening? From comments I've read from libs on a number of forums close to zero. Most Dems still don't understand why they lost.
So, they're calling for more cowbell i.e, more woke policies. Good luck with that.
