To win the nomination
1. I know we need to win over the minorities
2. I know we need to make in roads in to the south
3. I know all that is going to be hard work
I really feel the one thing that will make all that easy — by many orders of magnitude — is winning Iowa. Detractors might say
1. Iowa had different demographics.
2. Iowa does not always pick a winner.
But if we win Iowa,
1. The media will be forces to give more coverage
2. New Hampshire will also be in the basket
3. More people will start giving him a second look ( and a second look at Vernie is the final look that will change minds (in my opinion))
So what do we need to do this? Do we need to make more phone calls? Do we need to have a better GOTV? Does the campaign need to spend more money in advertisements? Whatever it takes. I think it needs to be done. I am not saying if Iowa is lost the nomination is lost. But if we do win Iowa, I really think our chances of getting the nomination will really go up !!!!
I am not much of an expert in politics. But this is my view of the situation right now.
Lets make the rest of the country FEEL THE BERN by making Iowans FEEL THE BERN first.
