Former President Barack Obama recently came under fire for warning Democrats not to go too far left. He may have a point.

Lisa Smiley breaks down how far left the Democratic Party has turned on some of the most important issues being debated in this election, including abortion, the Second Amendment, immigration, and healthcare.
