Vote for the change you want to see.

The Republican party got remade because trumpists showed up and outvoted the party elites. No reason it can't happen for the Left except for laziness and apathy.

If all the progressives furious about the state of affairs now had shown up for Sanders in 2016, I doubt we'd be in this hellish timeline. Sadly, he needed the young progressive vote to show up.

Look up Jerry Falwell and the Moral Majority.

Jerry made the Evangelicals a huge power in the GOP by simply having his people show up at every single GOP organizing meeting.

If twenty people had picked the nominee for dog catcher last term, the Moral Majority would show up with 50. Those county clerks and sheriffs were soon followed by Mayors and Governors and Congress members...

Now that's a smart strategy, we need to get organized on this level.

People need to stop focusing on how Hilary beat Bernie and look at how Obama beat Hilary.
