2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: The Rise Of Bernie Sanders And The PANIC Of The Third Way Democratic Centrists [View all]rbrnmw
(7,160 posts)216. Maybe you should stop using childishness to push your Candidate.
This whole thread says it all if you read it objectively. Now your team is pushing woman away like you did blm and AA in the summer. If your team wouldn't push your candidate in this manner maybe more people would be inclined to support him. How you approach people is not by insulting them and then acting victimized when they point out said insults.
