to coordinate on a simple, winner message is a lot harder than it seems.

This is something we can and should do.


Take a lesson from the other side. Simple Message. Strong Message. Coordinated. Repeated.

This is what cognitive science says is necessary to change the brain so it will absorb the message.

If we can't win the messaging game, we lose.

Tom Steyer: Excellent messaging from Tom Steyer: "Trump is a Failure and a Fraud"

I joined Tom Steyer's 'Need to Impeach' (trump) campaign a year or so ago, & think highly of Tom, but not as a presidential candidate. As noted below, I support Joe Biden as more experienced, and have for 40 years.
Thus, I cannot support Tom for president as I cannot support any of the other 'also ran' dems running, at this early stage. Thus it would be counter productive to donate even a dollar to Tom's nomination as his frequent emails suggest I do.
TV shows should suppress presidential candidates until perhaps november 2019, a full year prior to the actual election. Who really wants to listen to pie in the sky hopes what they will do 'once I become president'.

They are fine democrats, but most all have zero chance of getting the nomination. They 'run' for one of 4 reasons: 1) Running for election or reelection to senate, house, state, & feel exposure would help 2) running for vice presidential nomination 3) running to exploit a particular cause such as immigration 4) ego trip<<<<< too many, shame.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
