If not, why wouldn’t you throw your support behind a leftist or progressive candidate at least until the primaries are over? I am 100% for not letting perfect be the enemy of the good, but I am also against letting mediocrity be the enemy of the good.
Because the next step is more important that the perfect step. Sander’s and people like him can’t win right now. I want to support progress and sometimes that means smaller steps.
So, If I am understanding your correctly, you think that if the left rallies behind a progressive/leftists candidate that they might be able to win the primary- but not the general election?
If that is not what you are saying then I don’t understand your reply.
I’m not trying to flame you, I am seriously interested in your point of view.
Are you a liberal?
