country need a complete overhaul.

(57,936 posts)2. You are so right. I have been thinking the same thing.
We need Sanders Democrats running in every single district in the country, especially in the South. We need to target economic issues and win the votes of Southerners who get by on food stamps and government assistance and who see huge incarceration rates. We can do this. But we need the candidates.
