    Where are all the “good” candidates? There’s a few whose name is tossed around but you’re talking hundreds.

      That detective, is the right question.

      They don’t exist yet.

      Knock Down The House

      Regardless of your opinion on AOC, this documentary about how she got elected lays out the steps.

      1. Independent local grassroots electoral movement. Dedicated to getting/organizing volunteers, signature gathering, door knocking, everything from getting candidates on the ballot to winning in the election.

      2. Candidate nominations. AOC didn’t sign up, her BIL or someone nominated her and the Grassroots Movement approached her to run.

      3. PRIMARIES. PRIMARIES. PRIMARIES. Target establishment DNCs who clearly have more in common with corporate lobbyists than their own constituents.

      4. Run the numbers game. Only 1/4 of their candidates won. Democrats should face a primary EVERY SINGLE ELECTION.
