The following is a question I posed to a DUer in the Bernie Group ... [View all]

While I did not see that it was the Bernie Group (and I meant no offense), I think there is value in posing the same question ... for the same reason ... in this Group.

Do you really believe HRC supporters or Bernie supporters are switchable? Both set of supporters are firm and fixed in their support.

Fishing in one another's tank does us no good ... The focus should be fishing in the ocean of non-HRC/non-Bernie supporters, thereby increasing participation (i.e., voter turn-out).

And, this would best be accomplished by strong positive messaging; rather than, attempting to sully the other Democratic candidate(s) ... I would love all Democratic candidates saying something to the effect of, "All of the Democratic candidates want the same direction for the country, any of us, with your support and effort, will get us their ... And, here is my plan to get us there" and at all costs, refrain from providing attack lines.
