2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumLOTS of people want (and are voting for) real change this year.
Do you want it? Enough to ignore the bought media and its "math" narrative? If you don't want it, Why not? You know Bernie's NOT promising anything, don't you? Are you unwilling to be part of the change, to run for office, to do precinct work? To change the Democratic Party to something that connects us and doesn't lie to us about the world?
If you want it, you know what to do. If you don't want it, you still know what's the right thing.

(31,849 posts)The only (significant) change that will occur in this election can be negative change. Bernie can't/won't advance the ball (because of a lack of institutional/establishment support), HRC might advance the ball a little (because of her institutional/establishment support) ... the gop can/will take the ball and threw it off the cliff (because they are assholes).
