Words of Donna Davis
Please stop conflating
moral rectitude with a plan.
moral rectitude with a plan.
Please stop thinking your righteous indignation is an automatic path to victory. We have to do real work in the RW.
Like that Hamilton song, we’re outgunned, out manned, out numbered (polls v. pop.)and certainly out planned. When I watch you berate the folks who fought for the rights you now enjoy, I consider that an intervention is wholly in order. The media you say you hate is misguiding you. You’ve allowed MSM to chart your course and frame your limited thinking.
It’s time to stfu and listen.
It’s time for some good ol’ fashioned organizing.
Intellectual hierarchies are not working -not on political campaigns, not in community activism, and not in community organizing.
It’s time for thoughtful investigation and examination of our current tactics.
When you get your message right, you’ll win.
That’s it. That’s all.
I met Joe Biden once
Summer of 2013 at the White House. Nice guy! Firm Handshake! Did not try to kiss me! He's a lot like he's portrayed on Saturday Night Live. Maybe a little handsy-er but if he were in my family, he'd still be my favorite uncle. Mostly because all my other uncles are total dicks!
(Not you Uncle Richey!)
With that said, *IF* Biden could beat Trump, he'd be a really boring President. Certainly not anything nearly as dangerous or horribly corrupt as this greedy, lecherous, amoral white nationalist fascist asshole we have now, but he'd still likely just meander through his Presidency affecting very little real change, occasionally invading people's personal space, as shit continues to get worse and worse all around him. While this may seem like a vast improvement on the face of it, that's more a reflection of how low we have sunk.
Biden doesn't have a clear understanding of the all encompassing urgency of the climate crisis. To Bernie, it's a National Emergency. To Uncle Joe, it's another talking point to butcher. Just having a warm body that believes in science in the White House may sound really refreshing but at the unprecedented rate the world is heating up, with all the dire warning signs the planet is giving us almost daily, we don't need a guy that thinks "clean coal" is still on the table and better mileage on your new Chevy is something to cheer about. Biden's climate plan scored at or near the bottom of the field by the Sunrise Movement, Greenpeace, 350, Data for Progress and the Center for Biological Diversity. I have no doubt that he'd put together a strong climate team to push far better energy policy than the total disaster we have going but how far do you think he'll go while still collecting tons of money from fossil fuel industry donors? He is not going to put a dent in the climate crisis and this is my single biggest issue with him. But there are several.
It's not a coincidence that healthcare and insurance stocks soared after Super Tuesday. Biden's approach to healthcare costs more than Bernie's and still leaves millions without real health care. Joe will make sure that there is still plenty of enormous profit to be made from people getting sick. Execs are breathing easy. With Biden, they have nothing to fear.
What about income inequality and the death of the middle class? Forget about it! Wall Street loves Joe Biden. They're breaking out their checkbooks faster than a toupee in a Florida hurricane.
But he's best pals with Obama! Yes, yes he is.
But did you know his middle name is "Robinette?"
Think about that for a minute.

Young Florida Berners Check This Out
Many young voters sat out Super Tuesday, contributing to Bernie Sanders' losses.
Young voters cheer Bernie Sanders' anti-establishment message. They turn out in throngs at his rallies. And they form the core of his grassroots efforts to win the Democratic presidential nomination.
But their fiery passion did not translate into the robust turnout he needed on Super Tuesday to win a number of key states. HERE
Without you Bernie can't win. Early voting is happening right now everywhere.
NO LINES!

Florida Berners pull yourselves together
Dear fellow progressives: pull yourselves together. I know last night was disappointing. However, no one said this was going to be easy or fair. When moderates were losing, they didn’t throw in the towel. They claimed victory, even as they lost. Then they collated. A seventy delegate lead after Super Tuesday (especially with a majority of southern states that will vote red in the general election anyway) isn’t the end of the world, or even close to it.
Pull yourselves out of your depression and get to work. As progressives, we will always have to work ten times harder than the establishment.
There are still over 1,000 pledged delegates on the table, especially in states that Democrats are more likely to win and who lean progressive.
But it will take more work and more organizing. Get yourself to a Bernie event, start knocking doors, get on that Bernie dialer, talk to your friends and family to make sure they are prepared to vote and STOP attacking other candidates. It isn’t effective and it hurts us. Channel that frustration into action. Posting articles about why other candidates suck doesn’t win votes. It just turns off possible allies and it only excites your echo chamber.
Ask yourself: how much work have I done to get my candidate elected? If your not willing to help with the heavy lifting, you’re not really ready for a political revolution. If your not willing to push yourself out of your comfort zone and leave it all on the field, your candidate is never going to win.
I know it’s discouraging, trust me. However, I’m actually pretty impressed and pretty hopeful that Bernie walked out of Super Tuesday only behind 70 delegates. Especially after three ex-candidates endorsed Biden a Monday night. I thought we’d be behind a couple of hundred delegates.
When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
Do boo, organize!
We can still do this! PM me for details on how to get involved! ❤️❤️❤️
Sending you all love! Jessica Vaughn
Stay Focused Berners

Vote for Bernie, and...
Please be sure to avoid candidate shaming other Democrats. In order to better consolidate support from former candidates in the Democratic primaries, and to be the change we so desperately need, we must approach people with kindness. I know that each camp has its share of good supporters and belligerent supporters. As Bernie supporters, we must acknowledge that due to our campaign’s size it also has more loud, problematic people who have passion that needs to be reigned in for the sake of what I mentioned above.
We must not take the bait. When interacting with supporters of other Democratic candidates, we need to be ready to disagree and do so respectfully. Doing so will help bring more people over when more candidates drop out, and they likely will. Share this message far and wide; we need to win, and doing so will require a degree of unity with those who support Elizabeth Warren and Tulsi Gabbard right now. It is necessary to have passion and a sense of urgency regarding our revolution; let’s make it count. We must be prepared to listen when Bernie asks us to approach the Democratic field with civility, now more than ever. Do not apologize for disagreement on the issues, and show humility for taking passions too far. I have done this and I aim to be better about disagreement with fellow Democrats in the future as best as I can. I say this as a true Bernie supporter, a constituent of his, and a candidate for Bernie Sanders’ delegate who is about to turn in his primary ballot.
Join me to help Bernie win. If we can get him to be the Democratic nominee, we can absolutely defeat Trump. A progressive nominee who galvanizes support in lieu of senseless attacks (think about Barack Hussein Obama) will win this election. The socialist attack will be tough, and similarly devious lines will be used against whomever wins the nomination. What we need is someone who can win, and then govern from a place of strength. That person is Bernie Sanders. Let’s win Super Tuesday for Bernie Sanders.
Stay groovy,
Asher
