(29,503 posts)Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men's blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency. Remember that our sons and our grandsons are going to do things that would stagger us. Let your watchword be order and your beacon beauty.

(13,877 posts)On the contrary, Bernie is about us getting up off our duffs and doing the work together. I'd like to see some more fleshing out of what that would look like after voting, but I trust it's coming.
I have no questions about the after-election effects of the other candidate.

is nothing wrong with ambition.
Hillary will be just fine win or lose: it Sanders that will give us
Trump, and Hillary cares about her country.

This is exactly the kind of thinking that will defeat Hillary Clinton ... either now or in the fall.

(34,845 posts)'Fighting' means getting out on the street. Protesting. Getting in their faces. I see very little of that happening.

(25,960 posts)"It's not possible!" is just a smokescreen for the "sensible centrists" swelling around Hillary.
