I think the equivalent of this would be Dukakis doing the tank photo-op after winning the election and then someone writing an article about how hard it made their dick

Jesse woulda won if he ran his 1988 campaign in 2016 but I dunno if the election immediately after the Reagan years was the time to run it

that said: I do not have a good understanding of the 1988 political landscape on account of I was literally one year old at the time

it's the weirdest thing when hillary supporters accuse bernie of centering white working people in his presidential campaign when his opponent literally talked up her being backed by "hardworking americans, white americans" when she was running against obama

Jesse Jackson would have won.


Let's run on his 1988 platform:
  • creating a Works Progress Administration-style program to rebuild America's infrastructure and provide jobs to all Americans,
  • reprioritizing the War on Drugs to focus less on minimum sentences for drug users (which he views as racially biased) and more on harsher punishments for money-laundering bankers and others who are part of the "supply" end of "supply and demand"
  • reversing Reaganomics-inspired tax cuts for the richest ten percent of Americans and using the money to finance social welfare programs
  • cutting the budget of the Department of Defense by as much as fifteen percent over the course of his administration
  • declaring Apartheid-era South Africa* to be a rogue nation
  • instituting an immediate nuclear freeze and beginning disarmament negotiations with the Soviet Union
  • giving reparations to descendants of black slaves
  • supporting family farmers by reviving many of Roosevelt's New Deal–era farm programs
  • creating a single-payer system of universal health care
  • ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment
  • increasing federal funding for lower-level public education and providing free community college to all
  • applying stricter enforcement of the Voting Rights Act and
  • supporting the formation of a Palestinian state.
* Replace South Africa with Israel
