If Jerry Brown approves, it's gotta be good. You can have faith in that endorsement. Same for De Blasio. That Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are behind it is enough, right there, to prove its worth.

Conversely, I've learned that another shorthand test is - does the GOP hate it? Well then, that should tell you enough, right there, to prove it's worth supporting. Sometimes that's really all you need to know. GOP opposes it? Then it's well worth getting behind!
