They did a fuckton more than buy some facebook ads, and that's part of the reason wealth inequality rises to unprecedented levels and all the rest. Have you been ignoring the news, or only the half that doesn't support your biases?

Kerry and Gore lost on ostensibly the same platform as Clinton and Feingold didn't run for president. Also Feingold lost in two years that the center left got slaughtered as well. Not great examples buddy.
