But as others have said here, he really didnt think it through when he started off as to the message, and it hurt him severely. Having tons of white middle class males lecturing POC as to how to vote, didnt help.
He now controls this massive organization of involved citizens, most of whom probably were not involved a year ago, and what he does with it is what matters.
Why I have hope is I truly believe Bernie will make this be worth all the effort, that he cares about change in a real way and not about his own gratification or power.
I also believe the white liberal political power structure needs POC and they better start acting like it.
