Former First Lady Michelle Obama shut down discussions of her throwing her name in the Democratic presidential race, telling her rabid fans there’s “zero chance” she’d run. Oprah Winfrey deflects such questions nearly every day. There are still “Draft Hillary” groups out there trying to demonstrate that third time’s the charm.
With technically 25 “major” candidates that include 1/8th of the Democrats in the Senate, current and former governors, members of Congress, a Vice President, two entrepreneurs, and two current mayors, why are there still good chunks of Democrats seeking more nominees to enter the race? Could it be this batch of candidates are failing to inspire? Possibly, but there’s a deeper problem faced by the Democratic Party today.
Democrats have an identity problem. It’s not that they don’t know who they are, but they’re having a hard time identifying with any of the candidates. There have been “Reagan Democrats” and “Clinton Democrats.” A good number of Democrats currently identify as “Obama Democrats,” which can best be described as not-quite-socialist but getting close. Those who have entered the realm of socialism often identify as “Berniecrats,” though many of those people are now supporting Elizabeth Warren or Kamala Harris.
But the moderate Democrats are having a difficult time identifying with anyone anymore. Sure, they have Joe Biden as an alleged continuation of the Obama era, but even his brand of moderation is being yanked from the middle to embrace the radical progressives’ agenda being embraced by so many of the candidates. Without Biden rising to the occasion as the sensible, charismatic candidate many Democrats want, who can they turn to now? Is there really a chance that “Bullock Democrats” or “Hickenlooper Democrats” can rise up? How many Democrats even know anything about Steve Bullock or John Hickenlooper?
Andrew Yang and Pete Buttigieg seem to be pulling from the moderate wing of the party even though both have a few radical ideas in their bag of tricks. But even as they rise and fall in the polls, the void still remains.
Nobody’s talking about Tom Steyer. Beto O’Rourke and Cory Booker seem to be afterthoughts. Amy Klobuchar and Kirsten Gillibrand have failed to make any impact. Tulsi Gabbard and Marianne Williamson are still trying to appeal to a different fringe of the party than the radicals.
Despite having the largest field of presidential candidates in U.S. history, the Democrats are still having trouble getting behind someone instead of being against President Trump. He seems to be the only unifying force for the left.
We are currently forming the American Conservative Movement. If you are interested in learning more, we will be sending out information in a few weeks.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
Covid variant BA.5 is spreading. It appears milder but much more contagious and evades natural immunity. Best to boost your immune system with new Z-Dtox and Z-Stack nutraceuticals from our dear friend, the late Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
