    Bernie won over a Fox News crowd. We need people running independent campaigns that focus on working people minus the hate and culture war crap like that currently animates repub voters. We’ve never been more primed for something like this to work.

      We need thousands of people running, in every single race everywhere. Flood the local offices with leftists, School Board to City Council to County Commissioner. That’s where political careers start.

      I’m not accepting it, I’m doing what I can to change it, but it’s true that when voters feel apathy it benefits Republicans more. That’s why it’s important Democrats change to energize voters and reach out to more non-voters.

        I havent seen Dems fight much of anything or anyone except progressives in their own party since the election. They keep joining the republicans on vote after vote too. How do we evangelize … that
