It is time for those of us who are sympathetic to Bernie Sanders' policy proposals and community organizing strategies to stop agreeing with those who treat Sanders as a fringe candidate, or someone who can't win. When Politico.com decides to publish an article like this, and people from the DNC establishment go on the record to say they are concerned Sanders can win the nomination, counting off the early primary states where Sanders now has momentum, and is ahead or in position to be ahead by voting time, that is important information and perspective, that should be something we should be talking about much more than not.
This is not our way to avoid bad news, i.e. Sanders not winning, as in Donald Sutherland's character, Oddball, in the often unjustly neglected war/anti-war film, Kelly's Heroes. The importance of speaking more positively and hopefully about Sanders is to counter the negative spin constantly emanating from corporate media punditry, and talking positively when corporate broadcast media is ignoring Sanders and his exciting campaign.
