A 2016 primary run by Bernie Sanders would be good for Democrats, progressives and the nation

8. Three things are ABSOLUTELY essential for

a progressive candidate to be able to win the primary:

1) Fifty-State strategy. Have grassroots, ground game in EVERY state and do it early.
2) DO NOT drop out after Iowa, New Hampshire or South Carolina. NONE of these states represent the rest of America, why do we pretend they do? STAY IN until ALL 50 STATES have had their primaries. Someone like Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders won't finish first in New Hampshire but they'll be frontrunners in places like Oregon and California.
3) The Democratic Party needs to stay the fuck out of it until THE PEOPLE from ALL the states decide. That won't happen of course but it's the way it's SUPPOSED to work. Democrats need to DEMAND that the people speak first and not the party bosses.
