If you're upset about the Sanders campaign's results in South Carolina, consider this quote by James K. Galbraith on how an American progressive grassroots movement must arise out of the North.

❝How do you get the kind of solidarity that enables you to have a sustainable economic, financial, and human social relationship?.. I suggest it is a question of institutions, it is a question of setting a course and building them over a long period of time; of experimenting aggressively, but above all, of beginning with a change of ideas. With an understanding of what you need to do, and I suggest that really does need to come, as the New Deal came in the United States, from the wealthier and more successful parts of society. The New Deal could never have emerged from the American South, it actually came out of New York and Wisconsin. It has to come from an expression of moral leadership from those who are in a position to exercise it.❞

1. Keep in mind that New York has 247 delegates, and California has 475.

South Carolina has 53 delegates. This primary will be decided by 50 states and our territories, not the first four.

Keep fighting. Better times are coming.

2. and SC

is not probably winnable in the general election. McCain and then Romney won SC in the GE. Bernie is going to win plenty of other states.

4. Problem is

The SEC states control the early media narrative of primary season. Thus it seems more likely by the time California votes, Bernie will be forced to drop out or the voters in California will be convinced to get behind the frontrunner.

5. But witnessing the lies and smears the media and Hillary are spreading about Bernie

will increase their determination of Sanders supporters in later states like California to put up an all out fight. Also as time goes be people get more familiar with Sanders.

3. If you're upset about it, phonebank all day tomorrow and Monday and Tuesday during work breaks.

Or canvass if you can. Berniesanders.com I led canvassing all day long today and we need more volunteers. So many people are leaning Bernie but still undecided, you wouldn't even believe it.

6. One can really see how TISA will likely block New Deal-like programs in the near future
