Strategy of Voter Activation vs Candidate Engagement

The hosts analyze an interview with a Color of Change spokesperson regarding their refusal to endorse a specific candidate. They critique the strategy of "activating" voters without forcing candidates to change their policy platforms. The conversation suggests that political organizations often focus on getting voters "in line" rather than addressing the root causes of their disengagement.
