That's what Bernie did when he announced, he spoke out of the gate. What does Hillary have to hide? She is on our side, but she is not acting like a Democrat. She is acting like a 1%. Grassroot support for Hillary is at $1,000 per person up to $2,700 for access to Clinton? Bernie makes himself accessible and does not hide anything. Trust me when I say this: He is attracting a lot of unhappy voters who are SICK and TIRED of the status quo for the last 30-40 years, pretty much since Reagan.... where both parties squabbling and moving to the right. People are not voting because they are sick of the status quo, and want a different approach. Bernie's approach is the freshest we've had in probably 40 years. People got excited about Dean, but it faded. But the Bernie phenomenon - it is the real thing.
I have never experienced anything like that all my life, and I love it. That, to me, is what a true progressive Democrat should be.
I'm ready to primary those who follow Clinton or the Third Way.
