In reply to the discussion: Democrats better embrace progressive millennials or get used to losing [View all]Kaleva
(36,307 posts)A progressive is well versed in the issues of the day and knows just how important it is that they vote in each and every election. It's about the most simple action, voting, that a progressive can do to better this country or at least prevent things from getting worse.
Thus the author isn't talking about getting millennial "progressives" to go out and vote because they already do so every chance they get and have been doing so since they've been legally allowed to vote. What the author is talking about are those millennial's who aren't progressives but could be convinced to go to the polls and vote in our favor if we address issues important to them because we understand that we can't win the White House or control of Congress on just the votes of progressives alone. We need moderates, radical leftists and even sane conservatives in order to win the big prizes.
