Bernie, as president, will do far more good for the American people than Hillary can. A Republican

president in 2016, of course, might spell the beginning of Fascism in our nation.

We must all have noticed that the Main Stream Media have been very quiet about
Bernie Sanders. They report little or nothing about what he says or does. They
try their best to avoid mentioning him altogether.

Why? I think they are AFRAID of having him as an opponent in the General Election.
And the best way of not having him as an opponent is to keep him in the dark as
much and as long as possible.

On the other hand, Hillary does get mentioned in the MSM -- often. Again, Why?
The Repubs. would much rather have her as an opponent. They think she will be
easy to beat. They have so much more negative things to say about her. Repubs.
think of her as easy pickings.

Let's help stop Fascism from taking over our Government.

1. "The repulicans want her to be their opponent"

Then why are they completely ignoring Sanders and O'Malley? Is it because there is absolutely nothing to attack them on? Or is it perhaps that they want anyone but Hillary? And that they are so afraid of her that they will use the US treasury to attempt to destroy her?

The idea that the republicans want to run against Hillary is not based in fact...indeed the facts must be completely ignored to make it.

I actually wish they wanted Sanders...they would lay off making shit up about Hillary to send to DU.
