174. Many, many unions

Mon Jan 25, 2016, 07:56 PM

Jan 2016

Not a few. Every week there are endorsements from additional unions. And naturally the white bourgeoisie loves to tell unions how they are expected to serve them. Nothing new there.

Some of those unions have actually published their votes, but that of course is irrelevant--and not that they have any responsibility to do so to anyone but their own membership. And the rank and file union members turning out in Iowa and NH to canvass for Clinton, they are all corporate sell outs, just like Sybrina Fulton and the mothers of Tamir Rice and Eric Garner. Naturally anyone who doesn't prioritize Bernie's career above everything, especially organizations that provide healthcare to poor women or fight for marriage equality, is unfit to exercise their own democratic choices.
