Remember the context of this subthread, though; @etpol01 wants to argue that Ayanna Pressley’s compromises make her unacceptable. Me, I think that Pressley is a person of good character who is not compromising on the kind of basic human rights issues you raise.
The problem for any politician is deciding what goes into the area between “desirable” and “unacceptable”, and horsetrading on that; if they want to be effective they don’t have the luxury that you and I do of deciding that there are only trivialities between those lines.
