He has a good future as a lawyer. Lawyers are presented with an event or a series of events and they seek to determine who or what caused that event or events. They review the facts related to the event and then, based on the facts, figure out theories that could explain the events. They present the theory that is most favorable to their client and the facts that support that theory to a court. An opposing lawyer presents a different theory and maybe a different set of fact or puts a different face on the facts and the judge and/or jury decide.
I think he is trying to draw the attention of the Sanders campaign to the need to be sure that its representatives are loyal and work well with the grass-roots supporters in each state.
I have a lot of campaign experience as a volunteer going way back, and I plan to pretty much campaign the way I know to campaign and ignore anything anyone tells me that is different.
I do not understand the internet campaign. I'm too old. But then so are a lot of voters.
I will be walking door to door and handing out information. It's just what I will be doing.
On the other hand, organizing demonstrations for Bernie may be counterproductive. I do not think that demonstrating against Trump in Illinois helped the Bernie campaign at all. It vents a lot of anger and frustration, but you win elections patiently, one voter at a time and not with demonstrations. The demonstrations scare older voters.
No noisy demonstrations, please. Rallies. Yes. But demonstrations like the one against Trump alienate voters.
