Billionaire funded groups.

Nice of Politico to highlight to two Jews, wasn't it?

Steyer is not but he's a really hard worker. My point is, unless this group also includes other heavyweight billionaires, they are poor compared to the Kochs, Mercers, Uihleins, Adelsons. We need more of them to get involved, so hopefully they can build on this.

We have to use all legal resources we have at this point in our history.

Notice how the article begins with a 19-year-old volunteer. Steyer, et al., know something that I've been putting to good use in my own canvassing efforts and that, honestly, I am constantly amazed almost everyone I talk to is unaware of:


1.) Millennials (Gen Y), currently aged 22-37 years old will have surpassed the Baby Boomers in numbers by sometime in 2019. Every single Millennial that I've helped register to vote was unaware of this fact until I told them so. I could literally see their eyes light up with an "all is not lost" realization once they understood this.

In other words, by 2020, it is conceivably within Gen Y's grasp to take political power away from the Baby Boomers, whose influence has controlled all aspects of American society for decades, even from the time they were children when everything commercial realigned around them. The Millennials' potential obviously increases as the Boomers and older generations continue to reduce by natural attrition.


2.) The "Woke" Generation (Gen Z), currently aged 5-21 years old (so, for current voting purposes, those 18-21 years old) comprise as a whole 25% of the entire U.S. population!

Yes folks, that means Gen Z is the largest American generation ever, bigger than either the Baby Boomers or the Millennials. And it's already looking like this generation, based on teen studies going on right now, are more politically aware and globally conscious than anything we've ever seen in American society at this young of an age.

Come 2020, the eldest, 1/3 of Gen Z (18-23 years old at that time) will be heading to the polls.


These are the demographics that the donors in the above article are damn well aware of and that the rest of the Democratic Party needs to wrap their heads around as of yesterday.


In this cycle, I helped hundreds register to vote: Approximately 70% of my personal tally came from these two age groups...and I myself am a Boomer. Also, I reside in the region described in the article as the "rapidly diversifying states across the southern U.S." (specifically, for me, the Southwest). And, yes, these new voter registrations are highly diversified.

I can personally attest that Democratic funds for GOTV efforts have been sorely lacking here for a long time. Meanwhile, the Republicans are already moving on the Gen Z front with clubs in all the high schools and colleges, as well as social events to rope them in.

So, for what it's worth, if there is indeed any kind of debate going on about who to target and where to put the money heading into 2020, I'm siding with the billionaires in this article, who my gut tells me are working off the same statistics I am.

"Exclusive cadre?" This article sounds like it should be attacking "neoliberal" globalism and Soros's Jewish one world conspiracy plotting.

Apparently, though, some very wealthy progressive Democrats have been belatedly organizing to protect progressivism in government, including healthcare, to fight the tax heists, and to keep their counterparts on the right from taking over our government.
