Is Bernie Sanders Campaigning Upstream with Only One Principled Paddle?

20160221_0600 Bernie Sanders Super PAC Superdelegate progressive kick (time).jpg (Feb. 21, 2016) The Bernie Sanders campaign for the presidency may operating under sound moral and ethical principle by not using or supporting super PACs, he may be hindering himself since the other candidates are moving against him at full steam.

Sanders well reasoned and principled position against a corrupt campaign finance system has brought him support and the moral high ground during his campaign. If he is not careful, that may be just all he walks away with.

He has also collected donations from millions of individual supporters where the average donation has been $27. Yet, the failure of the Sanders campaign to fully utilize all tools at his disposal may ultimately be his demise. The especially true since his only adversary, Hillary Clinton, has utilized all financial options at her disposal.

This, together with how the delegate distribution system is managed during the primary elections, stacks the deck against sanders.

Despite Sanders honorable position to not endorse or use super PACs, one PAC has decided to step in and begin fighting for Sanders.

It appears, since many people in the nation have heard and been receptive to Sanders rhetoric regarding campaign finance, and are supportive of how he has ran his campaign thus far, it is time to start fighting fire with fire by pulling out all super PAC support as needed to secure the win.

Once in office, Bernie Sanders could then make the changes he believes is needed to be made to remove unfair and corruptive campaign elements from the electoral process.

For now, he may be paddling up the campaign stream with one paddle which could loose him the election, however, without jeopardizing his beliefs.
