We took a lot for granted. I know some people think Hillary did enough with her message to the Midwest but I disagree. And she was hardly here campaigning. That put a lot of people off. Young people were pissed at Madeleine Albright and Gloria Steinem. My son worked hard for Bernie. This was his first election to vote. He loved the honesty and approachable nature of Bernie. It's tough because of the divides in the party right now. We have to work on unity and a clear vision. We also have to work grassroots and generate some excitement.
