Why 2016 is so important. We have to take the WH, and get as many seats in the House as possible, and possibly take back the Senate. I think it can happen, though we won't gain control of the House for some time yet. We have Supreme Court judges that will most likely need to be replaced, many, many programs that help those in need that republicans would gut in a heart beat if they took back the WH, and continued to control the Senate and the house.

We also need to take back our local and state governments. As long as republicans control the states there will be problems.
