"Krugman’s mistake is very basic. He’s wrong about the Sanders
campaign’s theory of change. It isn’t that a high-minded leader can
draw out our best selves and translate those into more humane and
egalitarian lawmaking. It is that a campaign for a more equal and
secure economy and a stronger democracy can build power, in networks of
activists and alliances across constituencies. The movement that the
campaign helps to create can develop and give voice to a program that
the same people will keep working for, in and out of election cycles.
In other words, this is a campaign about political ideas and programs
that happens to have a person named Bernie at its head, not a campaign
that mistakes its candidate for a prophet or a wizard."
