Trump will not become President because love Trumps hate.
I hope we're good enough to deserve Bernie as President. Once in a lifetime.

(1,166 posts)president who did not go get the blessing of AIPAC, who has not made the deals necessary to collect millions of dollars from the banks and corporations, who does not owe anything to anyone but "we the people." (On another note, his candidacy has provided the conditions in which the underbelly of "business as usual" has been brought out into the light to a degree that it never has been before.) The sustained attempts by the corporate media to make Bernie Sanders disappear is just one illustration of the fact that elected representatives actually representing the people instead of banks, big pharma, big agro, big media, the insurance industry, big oil, and the whole military industrial complex is perceived by the powers that be as a serious threat of the highest order.)

(275 posts)He cares about the people. If a Democracy is run by and for the 1% alone we don't have a Democracy. And we don't have much of a Democratic Party if we as a party jump on board the gravy train. The politicians may pretend to be for us, while they keep advantaging the richest people and biggest corporations. Including the private prison industry that needs more incarceration so they can make more money.

Bernie has no ideas of his own, and the ones he has are not well thought out.
