Bernie Sanders on how to win.

[usonian]

From the latest email.

What Zohran's victory proved to me is that when people have something to vote for rather than just vote against, when we prioritize organizing and mobilizing, our progressive agenda can win against even the longest of odds.

OPINION:
Our message is excellent, and thowing dirt against the GOP is like dropping a spoonful on top of Mount Everest. They're the dirt kings with nothing positive to offer.

This is a short message that Bernie sent out.

*****
People attending rallies in huge numbers are saying
YES to raising the minimum wage,
YES to expanding Social Security,
YES to guaranteeing health care as a human right,
YES to cutting the cost of prescription drugs,
YES to paid family and medical leave,
YES to equal pay for equal work,
YES to more affordable housing,
YES to making childcare and higher education affordable to all,
YES to taking on the existential threat of climate change.

And most importantly they are saying
YES to a government and an economy that works for all of us and not just the billionaire class and the Oligarchs.

1. Zohran won a primary.

And Bernie please come back to me when you actually win.

8. He defeated a candidate with massive name recognition, funding,

and previous “experience”. Yes, it’s a primary, but Cuomo couldn’t even win that when this fresh candidate with fresh ideas got organized and out there.

That’s how we win the next races.

Unlike so many of our elected things, who are folding like lawn chairs.

10. What is he doing with the money?

He has three houses. How did that happen?

11. Mamdani's primary scares a lot of people.

All the right people.

The rest of us will continue to vote for politicians who protect voters, not their super PAC donors.

Donors expect a return on their investment, so this fight for power must be fought earnestly and with full knowledge of what is at stake. That is what Sanders' campaigns have always been about.

Congratulations to Mamdani and all my fellow NYers.
