KEY BLOCK----- John, (Sara, please see that this gets to him, thanks.) I ran this by the person I consider the smartest person in the Obama world (who was KEY to his re-election, and unfortunately doesn't work for youŠ), and he thought this was very important. I won't name him here. The below couldn't come from your campaign because of HRC's vulnerabilities, but maybe from a friendly journalist or op-ed writer? Think about this. Bernie says he will only take small dollar donations. That's fine for the primary. Let's say he spends $200 million and keeps up with Hillary. Then he gets into the general, and let's give him, generously $400,000,000 in small dollar donations. He needs a "social revolution" with millions coming out, especially young voters who are hard and expensive to turn out. How is he going to beat a $2 billion Republican machine? He is either going to have to take the big money from the Democratic machine, or lose. If he betrays his principles, he loses enthusiasm and followers. It's a Hobson's choice. Here is the punch line. Barack Obama, a squeaky clean candidate who has had no scandals and who no one thinks is owned by special interests (the worse you can say is he makes too many concessions to them, or hires too many people from wall street), thought, in 2008, even with the wind at his back (Republican-caused financial crisis and unpopular war), decided to leave the limited public finance system and raise a billion dollars. Same in 2012. So, and here's where Hillary comes in. Dear Bernie, are you saying you are a better, smarter candidate than Barack Obama and his apparatus (new organizing, registration, data, turn out operations?). Are you saying the enthusiasm you have generated is greater than Barack Obama, or that you are a greater revolutionary? Are you saying Barack Obama was corrupt when he decided he needed a billion to beat the Republican machine? Get real Bernie.
