but as mark cline said, that warfare reelection strategy has not worked, did not work for kerry or goreay back when. the only strategy working for democrats in the 207b8g century since fdr is the one that president clinton did for his reelection which is to pull away from class warfare language. so if they are to be believed it might be good short term base politics but not good long-term reelection strategy. >> rolland, you agree? >> first of all, quoting mark kan, that's the last person anybody should quote with a winning strategy. ask hillary clinton how that went. bottom line is here, new cnn poll is very clear when it comes to this. should deficit reduction bill increase taxes on businesses and mir income americans? 63% in this poll say yes. the problem you have is you have republicanes who say forget anything else, we simply want everything we desire and not you. the president made the effort when it came through the debt ceiling debate and they stilled no. this is smart move by the president and again, polling is there but also, you have americans saying, wait a minute, stop tryi

. >> hi, andrea cline. i'd like that talk about the use of technology. for instance, i didn't know that the postal service was that much assets in holding. why are we not using small organizations, small profits to push the message forward by way of youtube? 98% of minorities have cell phones and this is how they serve their computer needs. why not use those tubes to educate the populous and have a link to go to the website of the congressional representative, flood e-mails, bring them to the website, and then they'll hear us. >> we are. go on our website, go to the representatives' or senator's website or her website, any one of them, but we are struggling. the bigger point you make is why not use social media more effectively. we're struggling to catch up with that. right now as we speak, there's a conference in minnesota with young people. we bring young people in. we started trying to make a concerted effort because the labor movement for the last two or three decades, we've made a bad mistake towards young people. we had a model, tried to get them t
