Three serious questions for my fellow Bernie supporters

[zazen]

26. Sanders himself wants actively thinking supporters, not those who defer thinking to his strategists

It did seem snarky to me. If I misunderstood, I apologize.

I guess I'm bothered by the responses here (not just you) that suggest that "Sanders staff has considered this and therefore you people shouldn't be questioning it."

This is OUR MOVEMENT. Why we support Sanders so much is that it's about a bigger movement, not just him. We're all campaign advisers and strategists. The politics of being good little audience members who vote when told but aren't actively involved in campaigning needs to stop.

It is fair to ask these questions, because it's our movement. He's spearheading it, but this movement belongs to all of us, as he reminds us constantly. It is vital that we actively figure out how to persuade more Americans to support him in the face of obvious DNC corruption, a vast neoliberally controlled mainstream media, and an overall system corrupted by corporate contributions.
