This is an actual, verifiable quote. It has been so verified. It was said in public.

You can find reference to it on reputable internet sites of renown. There is no legitimate reason to dispute it.
I will take his advice and counsel over yours.

This trumps any economic issue- (it's impact on Unions notwithstanding, for reasons that the SCOTUS has affirmed those rights over and over again).

Call for 'Revolution' Still Reverberating as Sanders, Clinton Head Neck and Neck Into Indiana

"This is the beginning of the revolt against the establishment, not the end," political analyst says

byAndrea Germanos, staff writer

Days ahead of Indiana's May 3 primary, a new poll shows Democratic presidential rivals Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton neck and neck while observers foresee the Vermont senator's impact being felt long after the nomination is secured.

According to the NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll, Clinton leads among likely Indiana primary goers 50 percent to Sanders' 46 percent. But that lead is within the poll's margin of error of 4.6 percentage points for Democrats.

The poll also shows Sanders with a greater edge over Clinton in a hypothetical general-election match-up against Donald Trump. The Republican front-runner has a seven-point lead over Clinton in such a square-off, but just a single point lead over Sanders

Also on Sunday, the Sanders campaign announced that it had brought in $25.8 million in April, with the average donation being just under $26. And while the amount is far less than the $44 million haul in March, or $43.5 million in February, the campaign still touted it as surpassing the average monthly total of $17 million.

Copy of a letter I wrote the campaign about the super delegates:

Bernie, Jane, Tad, volunteers and staff:

Here is a quote I saw today in a Huffington Post piece:

"Superdelegates shouldn’t overrule the will of the Democratic grassroots,” Wikler said. “If the primary and caucus winner is Hillary Clinton, then Clinton should be the nominee. If it’s Bernie Sanders, then Sanders should be the nominee.”

The full piece is here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/bernie-sanders-superdelegates_us_57269509e4b01a5ebde5f91e

To that I would humbly offer: It is my understanding to Supers were put there to STOP grass roots activists from doing what we are trying...I am sure it was Debbie Wasserman-Schultz who just recently told us this. Well that's the case, it will be on full display for all the world to see!!!!
