2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)What comes to my mind when I see the Dems panic about Bernie Sanders... [View all]
When I hear and read Claire McCaskill or any of those others say things like, they won't work with a socialist or here comes the hammers and sickles... This is the first thing that comes to my mind.
Oh, I'm sorry. Do you get to choose who we support? Do you have control over it? Do you get anything, other than the very same vote that we have?
No? Then shut the fuck up.
Because when any of you politicians were sworn in, you swore an oath to the people. You became a servant to us.
We are not indebted to you or your comfortable way of life, you are indebted to US.
US. The people. So don't get all pissy because we're going for the candidate that runs a campaign with the idea that he needs the people and can't do it alone. See how inclusive that message is?
What's Hillary's message? "You need a leader? Follow me. We can't do all that, just shut up and row the damn boat."
Fuck that, we're ALL LEADERS, it's OUR nation, NOT yours and we will run it TOGETHER with the leader of OUR CHOOSING.
So keep panicking, but don't you dare take the rug out from under us. Everything we all know and love will change pretty fast then, and not for the better.
