    So if progressives have so many votes to offer and are the key to gaining political power, why don’t progressives dictate who the president/congress is?

    If they’re such an easy key to power, why aren’t politicians on both sides of the isle getting in line to get progressive or young votes to vote for them?

    Are all politicians and all the staticians running their campaigns stupid???

      Because donors do that.

      Because donors don’t want them to do that.
