Anyone who watched this YUGE video and still couldn't see the answer to that question never would!

primary today, I would vote for:

Nobody's heard of them. AOC got all the credit in their joint political stunts. A whole 3,000 votes won their endorsement. The average Democratic voter will never hear about it.

Keep telling yourself that nobody has heard of the Sunrise Movement. Here's a little truth:

Sierra Magazine, among the TOP environmental magazines IN THE COUNTRY, did a lovely profile:


Varshini Prakash Has a Blueprint for Change

The Sunrise Movement tackles climate change and income inequality


http://sierraclub.org/sierra/2019-4-july-august/act/varshini-prakash-has-blueprint-for-change


By the way, the Sierra Club is the nation's oldest AND LARGEST grassroots environmental organization.

And from The Politico, among the most plugged-in political publications anywhere:


The Sunrise Movement Actually Changed the Democratic Conversation.

primary today, I would vote for:
