(11,116 posts)I hope that his message is heard by the DLC/Third Way crowd loud and clear - we are not going to support you just because you carry a "D" instead of an "R" on the ballot. You better be fighting FOR us and not AGAINST us or we will fight against you. The facts and statistics that Sanders cites regarding distribution of income through the last 40 years is stunning and something that Americans should be in the streets protesting en masse - urban, rural, suburban, and all places in-between!
It's an outrage that our population is as ill informed and deluded as it is. If nothing else, Bernie Sanders speaks plainly and truthfully in the face of egregious efforts to marginalize him. I have loved his politics for a long time, I am falling in love with his campaign style more and more by the day!
Sanders has my support for the nomination and unless HRC incorporates a large percentage of his policy ideas, she will lose my support if she is the nominee in 2016. We can no longer afford to take the lesser of two evils. We have to demand a candidate without fear of reprisals from Wall Street. Money cannot be all that we hold sacred or we may as well not exist. There is nothing more sure than this - when each of us die, the only thing of import that remains are the lives we touch and improve in even miniscule ways; but our "wealth" and our "money" and our "power" are all on lease and they are foreclosed immediately upon death.
Sanders for ALL Americans!
