A political party doesn't realize that the people between the Rocky Mountains and Hudson River can, in fact, vote.

He lost a senate race to some chucklefuck suburbanite, ironically enough. So it's back to lobbying for him.

Here's some good ways to appeal to the working class;

In the wealthiest country on the planet, healthcare should be a right to all people.

No one working 40 hours a week should be living in poverty, the taxpayer is subsidizing multinational corporations making billions by paying for the government programs workers at these corporations require just to survive.

Infrastructure is crumbling across the nation while 99% of all new income goes to the top 1%, it's time for wallstreet to pay their fair share and employ skilled labor to repair or replace the nation's bridges, roads, pipes, and other projects. Improving mass transit and building high speed rail would be a huge boost to the economy both from workers building/maintaining/working, by people utilizing it, and by reductions in congestion and traffic for people who drive themselves.

College and Trade school should be tuition free, no young person should be denied the opportunity to achieve a higher education or learn a trade because of where they're from or who their family is.

People should not be locked up for using cannabis, we lock up more inmates than any other country on Earth. We spend $31,000 per inmate, plus who knows how much prosecuting these people, these people can't get work after getting out of prison, so it ends up acting as a revolving door. Imagine if we spent that $31,000 per person in prison for weed, to fund treatment and rehab for people with addictions to drugs like Oxycodone, Crystal Methamphetamine, Heroin, etc.

you know what people who ain't working and are living out of their cars really care about? high speed rail

And that is what makes me feel sad about him. Democratic voters at large rejected both him and his proposals as crazy talk coming from a senile grandpa ghost of an independent socialist gimmick. They did it for many reasons, and the most ironic of them was that they really thought he was unelectable. He did mistakes, and his campaign was not the best it could be. But he also ran virtually against the whole DNC apparatus and their money interests, and lost.

Democratic voters didn't reject him. The Party rejected him and called anyone who supported him a sexist and told them to stay home. Idk if it's still against the rules to say that but I will die before I'll let people say "the voters rejected Sanders"

It is an objective fact that 3.5M+ more people from the Democratic base voted for Hillary Clinton than Sanders.



How and why you reached that outcome is pretty well known (although highly contested by corporate/centrist Democrats). But in the end, it is your vote that counts (something that should be painfully obvious by now btw). Own up to it, and move forward so that this does not happen again. now.

I voted for Sanders in my pissant state and also for the socialists in the presidential so how about you gently caress your own face.
