To everyone supporting, advocating for, or working for a candidate in this primary season please remember this. A Democratic President elected in 2016 is the only thing that will stand in the way of:
War with Iran
Repealing the Affordable Care Act
Passing anti-Choice legislation
Halting funding for Planned Parenthood
One or more Antonin Scalia type justices on the Supreme Court
Increasing minority and gender discrimination
Enactment of federal anti-union laws
Scaling back and privatizing Social Security
Scaling back and privatizing Medicare
Scaling back and privatizing Medicaid
Passing tax cuts for the rich
Repealing the estate tax
Increasing income inequality
And the list goes on and on and on. Rest assured, any Democratic president elected in 2016 will be far better on all of these issues and countless others than any Republican who is elected.
So advocate hard for your candidate in this primary season. But remember the ultimate goal is to elect a Democratic president. Therefore, keep in mind as you advocate for your candidate now, that you do not want to do anything that could ultimately hurt the chances of the eventual Democratic nominee being elected.
Also remember this. When this primary season is over your candidate in the primary will endorse the Democratic nominee and will ask you to support that nominee. It is wise to keep that in mind as we engage in this intra-party fight to select a candidate.
