Personally, my main concern is that sander's message and goals be a real part of the overall campaign in the rimaries and GE. I hope he is the messenger, but if not, I just went to be sure it isn't tamped down yet again. We have to stop ignoring the causes of the extreme economic and social disparity, growing poverty and concentration of power that is occurring, We have to stop ignoring the elephant in the room, and stop kowtowing to the wealthy and powerful and stop letting corporations replace the role of government.
