(46,179 posts)No president can do it by himself. That's the whole point of the political revolution. He's talking about the mass movement that we are seeing, that we are growing, to bring about real change...from outside the beltway, currently controlled by big money.
He keeps saying it. It's not about him, but about the movement. I'm not sure what people have AGAINST a movement that breaks corruption, gridlock, and corporate control of government. It's not just about the '16 election of the next president. It's about organizing and being active at ALL levels of government.
The bigger we can grow the movement, the bigger Sanders coattails will be in the GE, the more change we can affect.
Or we can continue down the road we've been on, business as usual, which is not working well for the 99%.
