1. What happened to Ayanna Presley? Did she get tossed under the bus

for endorsing Warren?

[democrattotheend]

7. Is she facing a credible primary challenger?

If not, that could be why she was left out. I think all three of the ones he is raising money for are facing serious primary challengers.

12. Why is he raising money for himself?

[Laelth]

2. He left out Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts.

I wonder why?

6. becsuse she supported Warren

[Laelth]

13. That seems rather petty.

I would like to think better of Bernie. He doesn’t make it easy.

14. You know why. But Pressly has Liz Warren covering her back, she has all she need. nt

[Laelth]

16. Admittedly, I'd rather have Liz Warren as an ally. n/t

3. Pressley endorsed Warren.

[Me.]

4. His Campaign?

what campaign?

[sheshe2]

8. He is still raising money for himself.

Why?

Also he made it clear in his message that Arianna was left out because she did not support HIS message when she endorsed Warren. Unfugging believable.

[Me.]

9. House #3?

[sheshe2]

10. 4th.

[JI7]

5. Sanders is all about Sanders. AP did not endorse him

so why should he support her......

[LizBeth]

11. Our campaign" Is Sanders still asking for money? Fourth house?

[Blue_true]

15. Yeah, after Biden got 73% of the vote in the last Caucus.

I have no idea why Sanders is asking for money. Anyone that is serious about winning in November and getting rid of Trump should ignore him.

18. Expected. Donations for the movement, and that's okay.

And Ayanna Pressley distanced, or shifted, herself some time ago -- while not cutting ties. She wants a working relationship with them also. So all fine.

But this is a little illustration of why people wired to dissidence have never been able to create even a small party and virtually always fail to create the changes they advocate. Instead, advances are achieved by those capable of forming powerful working alliances. Like Pressley and Warren.

Inclusion, not exclusion.
