Nov 2015

Bernie Sanders--once again--said what needed to be said! Without apologies, without equivocation, without any doubt about what he means.

This man! I love this man!!

I never thought that a REAL presidential candidate would be saying the things that all of us have been saying for so long. Except it's not a poster on Reddit, or a columnist from Huffington Post or a liberal guest on Bill Mahr. It's a Democratic presidential candidate!

Mr Sanders, you are a very tall, cold glass of ice water in a parched, weary nation that is thirsting for courage, TRUTH, wisdom and an end to the damage that most of our current leaders have inflicted on this country.

Thank you!!! Thank you Senator Sanders for being the voice of "We The People"--and saying the things that need to be said and the things that must be said if to save our democracy!!!!
