Lunabell 's
Blueprint: A way forward

I'd add
Democrat Blueprint: A Way Forward

Thanks Earl G & Elad

ETA:
I realize on re-reading that the use of "Democrat" echoes the RW insult "the Democrat Party" but it's Not meant that way.
Was thinking "Democratic Blueprnt" - even though we discussing it know what it refers to; but someone seeing first time might also think it could be referring to Democracy (which we Do want save!) vs The Democratic Party.
Just to be clear.

But if folks like
Democratic Blueprint: A Way Forward,
cool.
