She is by far the lousiest type of leader there is. She doesn't understand you have to lead a Revolution, not sit and wait for it and hop in front of the line.

(449 posts)There's a chasm between Clinton and Sanders in terms of how they seem to think. That chasm is evident by way of their supporters.

(10,597 posts)Telling people they can't think so big, that they can't expect a better life, that they need to just live within their own means and forget about doing any better because "this is as good as it gets." That is an absolutely horrible way to have to bring up kids. What do we tell them when they look at us and ask "Why is it like this, Mommy (or Daddy?)" Poverty rips the heart right out of everyone it touches. So the parents go out and get 2 or more jobs, just to try and keep up, but after a while, it's like you never see your kids, you feel like you don't even know your wife or husband anymore. GWB thinks having 2-3 jobs is a great thing. Remember what that callus uncaring man said to that woman in that Town Hall debate about 10 years ago?
Like we should be happy if we can go out and find three jobs. That kind of life might be good for a robot, or a single person who has no social life (never knew one of those kind before. ) and no kids.
They can make it look like we are at the top of financial glory in this country, unemployment down, GDP up, etc, etc, but if they pull up the corner of that pretty little picture they like to cram down our throats all the time, they will see that it's not too pretty under there. But they won't look. As long as everything is pretty on the outside, as long as you keep the homeless hidden away, as long as they can keep the perception going that everything is hunky-dory, they will ignore the truth.
GIVE PEOPLE A RAISE TO $15 ASAP! Get universal health care enacted, since the corporations won't give them any benefits anymore. We must get Bernie Sanders into office and make life tolerable for all of our people.
Vote Bernie! Vote Bernie! Vote Bernie!
