-Turnout is about more than the major cities.
-Listen to the electorate. Say what you will about Bernie, but there's a reason his support went from the single digits to 42%.
-Energizing the base is critical. If progressives don't turn out for you, winning an extra 0.5% of suburban Republicans isn't going to save you.
-Pick an exciting candidate. Excitement isn't an indicator of how effective a candidate will be as president, but it's critical to getting elected president.
-Give people a reason to vote for you, other than just "the other guy is terrible."
