. We're only talking about socialism for the first time in almost 70 years . It would be wishful thinking that the majority of voters were pro-socialism after 100 plus years of anti-socialist propaganda bigtime , overwhelming. We do have the advantage that Americans are taught to think ahistorically and only in the present . So, most of that anti -socialist propaganda from the past is lost on the Millenials and Gen X'ers . They are open minded. So, we should be seeking to win them to socialism. Bernie's campaign is doing that . Frankly , I believe Occupy Wall Street was the beginning of the socialist revolution in the US.

In conclusion , we might be able to win socialism substantially by 2024 or 2028. It will be socialism with US characteristics. Sent from my iPhone
