12. Bernie has promised you a fight for climate change action
Thu Apr 28, 2016, 07:46 PM
Apr 2016

That you don't recognize it or acknowledge it is obvious.

Hillary would need to promise to make saving the planet her biggest priority on every front.

That would mean becoming an international fierce advocate on day 1. Ban fracking. Stop the TPP cold. Stand up to the oligarchs whose greed has polluted the earth and destroyed communities' natural resources around the world (this is where Bernie’s speech about corruption and too big to fail banks comes in) etc etc etc

This should be good. n/t Lil Missy Apr 2016 #1
