5. Two great women in this vid--eyes open, passionate & articulate about Sanders!

May 2016

Daughter hobbled around town with a broken ankle to canvass for Sanders, had so much pain she got tears in her eyes but soldiered on cheerfully, and her mom, inspired by her daughter to look into things, turned toward Sanders on his policies and against Clinton on her record. Both fear endless war under Clinton; both are mature, working class women, one of whom says, "I don't believe a word Clinton says."

We need more women like this in politics--women who are not fooled by Clinton's faux feminism and who understand that this election is about war, both hot war and economic war, and who worry about the victims of U.S. wars in other countries "not just about Americans," as one of them says.

Very impressive people! And a credit to Sanders that he inspires people like this--people who really care about our country's direction and take the trouble to get informed.
