Michael Bloomberg's tactics regarding gun control could be a useful lesson for the current White House race. He took over as many of the key players in the gun control movement were failing and disbursed large amounts of money to help him achieve his goals. But how did Bloomberg do it? How can you copy Bloomberg's success? Here are some key lessons learned from Bloomberg's gun-control campaign. The 0-to-17-year old population is the best place to start.

Everytown for Gun Safety

The controversial tactics of Everytown for Gun Safety, a gun control group, was highlighted by its recent appearance in Bloomberg's business section. The group has called for background checks to be performed on all gun sales. They also spent millions of money on campaigns for politicians. They spent $2.5million on Virginia races last year to help elect a Democratic majority in state house. They promise to do the same in Texas, where there are several gun-friendly laws.

Extensive background checks

The Senate has failed to pass the bill passed by the House of Representatives on Thursday. After three local governors urged it to be passed, the Senate has not approved the measure. A poll shows that 92 percent support expanded background check. Sen. Rand Paul says that senators who opposed the bill need to be ashamed. He explained this in a tweet. The victims should not be used to prop up politicians and should not be subjected to the horrors of gun violence.

All gun buyers would have to wait 48 hours before they can purchase guns. The legislation would also fund state efforts to enact red flag protection order laws. Although the Senate is yet to consider the bill, it's a good start. It would make gun controls more accessible and help prevent more tragedies. Let's examine the proposed legislation.


Concentrate on the 0-to-17-year olds

Bloomberg's recent campaign highlighted statistics showing how many children are killed each year by gun violence in America, but neglected to mention the thousands of non-fatal shootings that occur between 0 and 17-year-olds. Only half of these deaths are actually reported. Bloomberg's advertisement doesn't show the full extent of the problem. Everytown for Gun Safety, which advocates for stricter gun laws states that many of the teens who have been killed by gun violence in their youth are not being reported.

The financial muscle of NRA

Michael Bloomberg's PAC has a track record of supporting progressive causes. It has also spent millions to support gun control legislation. The most recent example is the recent congressional special in Illinois. Bloomberg's PAC spent close to $2 million to defeat Debbie Halvorson (pro-gun) and denounce the NRA. This is a clear indication of how much the NRA will spend on gun control.

Michael Bloomberg's ad

This latest political advertisement by a billionaire businessman has attracted a lot of attention. It was the most expensive Super Bowl commercial ever produced. Bloomberg paid for the ad. It ran for 60 second and cost over $10 million. Bloomberg's commercial is part a huge self-funded campaign. Bloomberg has already spent nearly $2 billion on advertisements. Bloomberg recently entered the presidential race and is supportive of measures such as universal background checks and "red flag screening."
