It is delightful to hear him calling out their MO. The way you fight corruption and manipulation is by making them explicit for people.

What he is doing is so important. He is re-teaching this nation what we have a right to expect from a representative political process, and pointing out how perversely ours has been corrupted.

REAL hope and change. We need Bernie in the White House.
