The corporate media whores have already written their scripts, and those scripts call for continued marginalization of Bernie.

The repukes have been building massive war chests, and guess where most of that money will be spent (aside from travel expenses and K-Street consultants)? TV, Radio, print and even internet advertising. And who owns those media? Big business who have a strong vested interest in maintaining the status quo. It's quite the symbiotic relationship.

That's why we need to become part of the political revolution. Where we can do the most good is through social media. Facebook, Twitter and other channels. And good, old-fashioned one-to-one campaigning.
