I prefer Bernie to Hillary, but I also hate the idea that the Presidency is the only position worth voting for. The House & the Senate are important too! Not to mention state and local governments.
True. Although politics is complicated and it takes a lot to make people understand enough to care.

Anyway, what I wish Bernie would articulate better - although maybe he has and I've missed it - is the importance not just of regaining the presidency but building a progressive movement on all levels.
I presume that's what he means when he talks about 'revolution'. But he doesn't seem to be doing a lot to make it happen.
