My point here is that we need to identify the things that need to happen and insist they happen. Coming up with a bunch of reasons why they can't right off the bat (often as an excuse for your favorite politician) just guarantees it won't get done.

It's also what the GOP has done with their crusade for years.

Yes, but it's different because the GOP doesn't actually have real grassroots support, they have to manufacture it. If people started demanding that politicians take up causes, no matter how quixotic, and supporting the ones that do, it creates momentum.

Exactly. Our side SHOULD be able to actually utilize the tactic better.
