Hillary Clinton

Since yesterday when some white male fake "progressives" for Bernie Sanders started getting violent in Nevada, hundreds of people appeared on Twitter - knowing my organizing history in Vermont - to urge me to move back there and run for US Senate in 2018. This was not in my life plan but they've pledged hundreds of thousands of dollars so far and I actually believe them. Check my Twitter feed. It's something to behold.
My life experience would probably disqualify me from holding political office anywhere but Vermont, but I do know almost every corner of the state and have receipts there. So here's the deal: If at the 2016 Democratic National Convention the "Bernie Bros" do anything to hurt the last one standing between racist Donald Trump, his attempt to scapegoat Mexicans, and the White House, I will move to Vermont, challenge him, and become a US Senator in 2018.
How's that for a Dilemma Action? Pretty good, no?
I could do that for six years. I would win if I did. Or maybe I'll just show someone else who can win that there are millions of dollars out here to help her do it. Either way, it could be fun...

It's real.

(27,800 posts)I am positive there will at least be a book (though I certainly hope he gets a ghostwriter, based on the previous examples we've seen of his writing).
I laughed )

(27,800 posts)he's kind of boxed himself into a corner on that one. Also, I don't think he can while he is still in the Senate.

Read his twitter feed at the link. Very liberal, he's not as pro-Hillary as he is anti-Bernie and Trump.
Here's an example of his genius-
