In reply to the discussion: Keith Ellison: [View all]Ken Burch
(50,254 posts)The support he received was solely because people trusted the guy and were inspired by what he's fought for in Congress and what he said on the stump.
I get it that you don't like him, but why is it so important to you to reduce his campaign to ego?
And why are you still campaigning against the guy when he will never run for president again and there's no harm in his simply working to get the party to support the ideas his supporters(and many Clinton supporters as well)agree with.
It's not as if there was no good reason for Bernie to run.
HRC would have been a excellent president, but she was never our only hope in electoral terms.
BTW...you talk about not making the campaign issue small...how do we make the issue BIG while still taking corporate money?
It's not possible to organize for a cause while being cool with the party being neutral on the cause.
