Bernie is 110% right poor people don't vote

52. From 3% to 40% is huge.

But it's not winning.

No Hillary supporter that I know is dismissing the size of Bernie's achievement. He has built the base for a potentially great movement. Now to me, the most important question is how he continues to strengthen the movement to the degree that it lasts and effectively pressures Congress to pass reforms.

The numbers in Congress just aren't there yet to achieve any of his platform. There is an historic 58 seat Republican majority in the House and that kind of control isn't going to go away any time soon due to extreme gerrymandering by Republicans.

So if Bernie really wants to make a difference, a lot of hard work is ahead, the kind of grassroots organization and messaging needed for real change.

I support the movement. I just don't think that Bernie is the one to get the job done through Congress as president.
