If you go back and watch that absolutely terrific Green New Deal maker ad, the one that took John F. Kennedy's exhortation to ask what you can do for your country and inverted it with Markey at the end saying with all due respect, it's time to start asking what your country can do for you.
The theme of that ad was there is a movement led by young people sweeping the country.
Ed Markey is a representative of that movement, and those young people have a right to demand change from the political establishment that represents them.
That was an argument that worked for Markey in the primary.
Now the people who are criticizing him are basically saying hey, you made us this promise.
We want you to lead in a way that you told us you were going to.
