Donna Brazile Tweeted Bernie a Whole Lotta Love During His DNC Speech
Donna Brazile, political analyst and Vice Chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee tweeted Bernie a whole lotta love regarding his DNC speech on August 28, 2015. She highlighted Bernie's demand to end the national tragedy that is mass incarceration as well as his call for campaign finance reform, an increase in the minimum wage, equal pay for women, combrat climate change and student loan finance reform.
She also tweeted that she was enjoying that Bernie Sanders was lighting a fire under the Dems to disrupt the status quo and start a political revolution and that she was all fired up and ready to go.
None of the other candidates got the same kind of response regarding their speeches from Ms. Brazile.
While not quite an endorsement, she is clearly enthusiastic about the Sanders Campaign!

Daily Kos: Why Bernie, err, Obama, Will Never, Ever Be Elected President...sound familiar
There is a lot of discussion taking place suggesting that despite rallies that draw 28, 000 people, a lead in NH polling, and a message that resonates with a majority of Americans, that Bernie will never be able to win. People fear he is too old. However, he is only 6 years older than Hillary Clinton and a mere 4 years older than Donald Trump. They say he is a socialist. But the truth is he is a Sweden-style democratic socialist, not a scary Stalinist. Labels aside, the plain truth is that the vast majority of Americans agree with Bernie.
All this got me to remember what was said about Barack Obama prior to his victory in 2008.
From a 2009 Daily Kos Article:
All this got me to remember what was said about Barack Obama prior to his victory in 2008.
From a 2009 Daily Kos Article:
Oct. 27, 2006: "[Obama] should run in '08. He will lose in '08. And the loss will put him irrevocably on a path to the presidency." For him to win in '08 would require a "miracle." --Charles Krauthammer
Dec. 17, 2006: "Barack Obama is not going to beat Hillary Clinton in a single Democratic primary. I'll predict that right now." -- William Kristol
Dec. 22, 2006: "Obama's shot at the top will be short lived.... Hillary Inc. will grind up and spit out any Democratic challenger that gets in its way." -- Joe Scarborough
Mar. 19, 2007: "The right knows Obama is unelectable except perhaps against Attila the Hun." -- Mark Penn
Sep. 24, 2007: "Sen. Obama cannot possibly believe, and doesn't even act as if he believes, that he can be elected president of the United States next year." -- Christopher Hitchens
Dec. 24, 2007: "A Bound Man: Why We Are Excited About Obama and Why He Can't Win." -- title of book by Shelby Steele
Jan. 26, 2008: "The 'could we beat Obama?' conversation is purely academic. It's over. The Clintons have defeated him already, because he is leaving South Carolina as 'the black candidate.' He won't win another state." -- Michael Graham, National Review
May 7, 2008: "[Obama] has shown he cannot get the votes Democrats need to win -- blue-collar, working class people. He can get effete snobs, he can get wealthy academics, he can get the young, and he can get the black vote, but Democrats do not win with that.... He will lose big." -- Rush Limbaugh
June 3, 2008: "Obama can't possibly be elected." -- Dick Morris
Aug. 4, 2008: "The Molten Core of Barack: Why Obama Can't Win." -- Alex Castellanos
Aug. 11, 2008: "As I wrote last December, '[t]he pundits can talk until they are blue in the face about Obama's charisma and eloquence and cross-racial appeal. The fact of the matter is that Obama has no chance of being elected president in 2008.' I am more convinced of this conclusion than ever." -- Steven M. Warshawsky, The American Thinker
Aug. 15, 2008: "Most people think Sen. Obama has this election in the bag, but in reality he stands very little chance of reaching the presidency because of the simple fact that he is far too liberal for America." -- Russ Duenow, Fredericksburg.com
Aug. 31, 2008: "Mr. Obama is doomed to defeat.... Mr. McCain will win - and win big - in November." -- Jeffrey Kuhner, The Washington Times
Sep. 22, 2008: "John McCain will win the presidential election, Kellyanne Conway, one of the country's most respected Republican pollsters, tells Newsmax." -- Ronald Kessler
Oct. 9, 2008: "I have received numerous emails from Republicans and Democrats alike, asking whether I still think Obama will lose the election. Yes, I do. But what about the polls, they ask? The polls show that Obama is winning. No, they don't, as I will explain." -- Steven M. Warshawsky
Oct. 25, 2008: "[T]here are real signs pointing to a McCain victory this year, whether or not the mainstream media wants to acknowledge them." -- Steven M. Warshawsky
Oct. 28, 2008: "The Seven Reasons McCain-Palin Are a Lock to Win." -- Dan Perrin
Nov. 2, 2008: Obama will win the popular vote but lose the election -- Fred Barnes
Nov. 3, 2008: "I think John McCain will win a squeaker over Barack Obama." -- Ed Morrissey
Nov. 3, 2008: "Throw out the polls. All of them.... The fact is that no pollster truly knows what is going on this election cycle, because this election is unlike any other in the nation's recent history.... The final Electoral Vote tally will be 275-263 for McCain." -- Mark Impomeni, Politics Daily
Nov. 3, 2008: "The media could be the real mid-wife of the November 4th victory by Senator McCain and Governor Palin." -- Dan Perrin

This "he can't win" meme is a tactic! They were wrong in 2008 and they are wrong now!

Brookings: Bernie Sanders, black lives matter, and the political wisdom of holding allies accountable
The Brookings Institute just published an online article by Fellow Vanessa Williamson about the role of activism in enacting change. I think that many strategies need to be employed, except violence. Interruption is one of them and has been used by AIDS activists, LGBT activists and Black Rights activists before #Black Lives Matters.
From Vanessa Williamson at Brookings:
Last Saturday, Bernie Sanders, the Vermont senator running to the left of Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination, was confronted at a rally in Seattle by members of the Black Lives Matter movement. The event followed a town hall meeting in Phoenix in July, at which Sanders and fellow Democratic candidate Martin O’Malley were interrupted by activists seeking greater attention for racial justice issues. Since then, a slew of articles have suggested that Black Lives Matter activists “err,” are getting it “wrong,” and even that they have been “remarkably dumb” in targeting Bernie Sanders.
