If the "game" to which you referred is "elections," then your choice of words is very poor.
After transposing we get, "You have to win elections to change elections." Doesn't make any sense at all.
If it's parsed differently to give you benefit of the doubt, it could read, "You have to win elections to change the game." That could make sense - if it had any credibility. For example, no elections of any kind imposed the citizens united ruling and that has super-sized the "game" like nothing else has.
You may want to say, "yeah, well, the supreme court appointees were made by people who were elected." And then I would say, "And so why hasn't the President (who deserves no respect at all due to his terrible lack of leadership and courage) stumped across this country in support of Bernie Sanders' proposed legislation to overturn the citizens ruling? And if the Sanders bill is inadequate, why hasn't the President demanded a Constitutional Amendment that he feels IS adequate?" There is no excuse for Obama on this issue - none.
So at the end of the day, it's not just winning elections that matters. It's fighting, leading, and doing what's right for working people. Right now, there is no one on any president ballot who fits that category. Obama is status quo.
