2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWith Hillary Winning Today WITH "Her Machine" AND Almost
every Democrat in Congress and the Lobbyists and the Corporatists and Wall Street and With Republicans and with Wealthy Elites and with The Harry Reid Machine helping her I think BERNIE SANDERS and ALL OF HIS SUPPORTERS should be celebrating!
The country is just now waking up to who he is, heaven forbid he should get MEDIA COVERAGE from the sell outs who report "stuff" these days... I'm VERY PROUD of him!
And going into SC with ALL THIS HELP, he's not only going have to fight back against this... THEY'RE throwing in an ANVIL for good measure. Jim Clyburne, The Number One Black Leader in SC will be standing with her!
Let's not kid ourselves on this one, the Clintons have played this game many, many times and THEY KNOW PEOPLE, who KNOW PEOPLE to help them. I honestly feel many of those who are helping her out either want something in return or are AFRAID of what they might do to them IF THEY DIDN'T get on board!
They've been in many mud fights and their hands haven't always ended up very clean. I think for those of us who've been activists for a long, long time we know they have many enemies. But even enemies will still support them because FEAR motivates.
One thing MSM has reported on over and over is that she always has HIGH NEGATIVES, so why is it so hard to believe THAT not everyone who supports her is doing it because they LOVE HER? Yes, politics is a dirty game!
I have to say one more thing that really, really, really infuriated me today. When Hillary Clinton gave her speech today, SHE WAS REALLY giving Bernie's speech. It was if she had a feed in her ear as she spoke. I doubt there was a feed, but I don't doubt she's stealing his message. I don't think she'll do what she's saying should she be the nominee, but she's saying it right now!
As we go forward, let's just remember where he came from and how far he's gotten, we ALL need to stay on the train and MOVE FORWARD! We're gathering steam as we chug along, so just keep saying, I know we can, I know we can, I know we can!
