    Absolutely. This is my chief complaint about progressives. Fight and win the small battles first. If you can’t out complete more conservative competitors there, how can you expect to win larger positions, and advance progressive causes?

    I’m aware efforts are being made, I’m only addressing malcontents who do nothing but complain about the lack of progressive presidential candidates and wide, global scale economic changes, but never discuss these lower, but critical bureaucratic postings.

      Progressives want radical change, and the instinct is that larger elections will enact change faster. That said, you’re right.

        Instincts and reality must align, else it’s just teenage dreaming
